You can claim temporary financial assistance if you lose your job. It partly replaces your lost wages for a short period while you look for other work, is not meant to be a permanent income, and is not based on financial need. Employers pay the whole cost of the program. How much you get depends on how much you worked and earned in the 12 months before you file.
