Report on the main results of the Employment Insurance Coverage Survey, 1998
Abstract
The Employment Insurance Coverage Survey was conducted during 4 months of 1998
to provide information on the ceverage of the jobless and part-time worker population
by Employment Insurance. It is a survey of individuals sampled from Labour Force
Survey participants; these were interviewed by telephone. The report attempts
to answer the following questions: How many unemployed persons has insurable
employment? How many have access to the benefits provided by EI? How many are
eligible for benefits? Those not covered or not receiving benefits are identified.
Finally, what are the alternative sources of revenue of the unemployed? This
report analyses the main findings from the survey for Canada. It compares outcomes
to the previous years' results. It also presents some beneficiary/unemployed
ratio data to put the results in a historical context.
