To be eligible to claim, receive and continue receiving loss of employment insurance benefits, the customer must have been employed and have been continuously working at their principal occupation for a minimum of 20 hours per week for 12 consecutive months as of the effective date of their voluntary loss of employment.
For example, if a customer has not worked for 2 weeks prior to staring a job at a new company, they will not be eligible to claim.
