New Jersey’s Unemployment Insurance (UI) program provides temporary financial assistance to eligible individuals who are out of work through no fault of their own. The program is funded through taxes paid by employers, and administered by the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development.
To be eligible for UI benefits, an individual must have worked for a covered employer and earned a minimum amount of wages during a specific base period. In addition, the individual must be able and available to work, actively seeking work, and not disqualified for any reason under state law.
The amount of UI benefits an individual may receive is based on their earnings during the base period, up to a maximum amount set by the state. Benefits are generally available for up to 26 weeks, and may be extended under certain circumstances.
New Jersey’s Temporary Disability Insurance (TDI) program provides eligible employees with partial wage replacement benefits if they are unable to work due to a non-work-related illness, injury, or other condition. The program is funded through payroll taxes paid by employees and administered by the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development.
To be eligible for TDI benefits, an employee must have been employed by a covered employer and earned a minimum amount of wages during a specific base period. The employee must also be unable to work due to a non-work-related illness, injury, or other condition, and under the care of a licensed health care provider.
The amount of TDI benefits an employee may receive is based on their average weekly wage, up to a maximum amount set by the state. Benefits are generally available for up to 26 weeks, and may be extended under certain circumstances.
