dct:title | National Schema on unemployment insurance |
skos:example | For instance, in Germany, the national regulation on unemployment insurance is managed by the Federal Employment Agency. Unemployed individuals who have paid into the unemployment insurance system for at least 12 months in the last two years are eligible to receive benefits. The amount of benefits is based on the individual's previous earnings, and benefits can be received for up to 24 months, depending on the individual's age and length of employment history. |

skos:note | The regulation stipulates that each member state must have a system in place to provide unemployment benefits to eligible citizens. The specifics of these systems, such as the amount of benefits and the duration for which they are provided, are determined at the national level, within the framework of the EU's regulations. The regulation also requires member states to share information with each other about recipients of unemployment benefits, to prevent fraud and ensure that benefits are distributed fairly. |
skos:definition | The national regulation on unemployment insurance within the member states of the European Union refers to the specific laws, rules, and guidelines established by each individual member state to implement and manage the European Union's overarching regulations on unemployment insurance. These national regulations are designed to provide financial support to citizens who are unemployed through no fault of their own, while they seek new employment. |
