Beginning in February 2020, the unemployment benefit standard will be referred to 90% of the local minimum wage standard, and the "unemployed people apply for, not meet and approve" approach will help the unemployed to receive unemployment benefits as soon as possible.

Liaoning requires that the basic treatment of the unemployed be strengthened during the fight against the epidemic, and the unemployment insurance premium be temporarily raised to 3 months after the epidemic is over. If the unemployed person and his employer have paid contributions for at least one year and less than 10 years, the unemployment rate will be raised from 85% of the current local minimum wage standard to 90%; the unemployed person and his employer have paid contributions for 10 years or more Yes, the unemployment rate was raised from 90% of the current local minimum wage to 95%.

This is a popular policy and reflects the government's bottom line. At the same time, in accordance with the spirit of the central directives, localities should follow the instructions of the central government to accurately resume work and production in different areas, so that all aspects of human, material and financial resources can flow.
