"Furlough Unemployment Benefits"

Furlough is when an employee is required to stop working for a period of time by their employer.

It is a tactic used during times of economic downturn and, more recently, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Workers remain employed and the expectation is that they will return to work when it is possible to do so. Furlough can be both short and long-term.

Workers do not have an automatic right to be paid by their employer during periods of furlough. Some federal workers can expect to receive back-pay but for most workers, their time off will be unpaid.

So, what benefits can you claim while on furlough? Find out here.
