CEPR Reports and Issue Briefs from Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR)

Abstract: This report is the first to examine whether workers who receive unemployment insurance (UI) increase their likelihood of employer-sponsored health insurance in their new job. The findings prove that in general, receiving UI benefits increases the likelihood of being hired into a job that provides employer-sponsored health insurance.
