Chapter 5 – Impacts and Effectiveness of Employment Insurance
This chapter analyzes the impacts and effectiveness of the Employment Insurance (EI) program for individuals by examining both access to and adequacy of benefits. The analysis also examines the EI program’s effect on workforce attachment, the impacts of Employment Benefits and Support Measures (EBSMs), and the EI program’s role in the workplace.
Annexes 2 and 4 provide the detailed EI administrative data used in this chapter, while Annex 5 outlines the main findings and methodologies of the research studies cited here. Unless otherwise indicated, tables and charts in this chapter are based on EI administrative data.
