what is Jobseekers?


JOBSEEKERS - A person seeking employment; An unemployed person who needs to prove he is looking for work in order to obtain government.The Employment and Training Administration seeks to build up the labor market through the training of the workforce and the placement of workers in jobs through employment services.


In the United Kingdom Jobseeker's Allowance (JSA), colloquially known as the dole (or, in Scotland, as the broo),[1] is a form of unemployment benefit that is paid by the governmentto people who are unemployed and seeking work. It is part of the social security benefits system and is meant to cover the cost of living expenses in periods where the claimant is out of work. It is paid by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) in England, Wales and Scotland and in Northern Ireland by the Social Security Agency - an excutive agency of theDepartment for Social Development. It is a working age benefit, and is generally available only to those aged 18–60 (the exact age at which customers can no longer claim Jobseeker's Allowance is related to the rise in State Pension age).[2] Jobseeker's Allowance is likely to be replaced by the Universal Credit during the current parliament. There are two forms of Jobseeker's Allowance, contribution-based and income-based.

To be eligible to make a claim for JSA the claimant must prove that they are actively seeking work. This is done by filling in a Jobseeker's Agreement form and attending a New Jobseeker interview (NJI). They must also present themselves to their local Job Centre every two weeks (fortnightly) thereafter to "sign on". Receiving Jobseeker's Allowance is therefore also known colloquially as "signing on". Claims for Jobseeker's Allowance are maintained by the Jobseeker's Allowance Payment System (JSAPS).

Outside of the United Kingdom, similar payments are made in Ireland and Australia. Ireland has its own version of Jobseeker's Allowance[3] which is also colloquially known as the dole(see unemployment benefit section Ireland). Australia has implemented strikingly similar unemployment/welfare policies, which also have official titles based on informal, colloquial terminology.
