Unemployment Insurance

Unemployment Insurance is defined as a joint state-federal program that provides cash benefits to eligible workers.  Each state administers a separate unemployment insurance program.

Unemployment Insurance Claims are submitted when a former Prince George’s County Public Schools (PGCPS) employee notifies a state unemployment agency that they are no longer employed with PGCPS and are requesting benefits.  State unemployment agencies then request employment information from the last employer listed by the claimant.
