Which term describes a temporary source of income for eligible persons who lose their job that is funded with money paid by the employer while the person is unemployed?

• A. Time management
• B. Unity of command principle
• C. Unstructured interview
• D. Unemployment insurance

Answer: (D)

Unemployment insurance is a temporary income source for eligible workers who lose their job, funded by payroll taxes paid by employers (and sometimes by employees) to provide partial wage replacement while they search for new employment. This program acts as a safety net, helping individuals cover essential expenses during unemployment and supporting the broader economy by sustaining consumer spending. It isn’t related to organizing work time (time management), management structure principles (unity of command), or interview formats (unstructured interview).
