Yes, this is how it works in many countries. There may be a waiting period if you resign, but you can still get unemployment benefits.

#10Yes, but with limits. How to prevent job hopping just to stay on benefits? Taking a paid vacation before the next job? I see opportunities for abuse.
In the United States at least, AFAIK, employers pay for unemployment. Who pays when the employee voluntarily separates from an employer? It seems unfair to make the employer pay for an employee who left and no longer works there. I presume that cost will be paid by the state, which as a taxpayer I am curious how to prevent fraud and abuse.
I see that states require a certain amount of employment before a person becomes eligible for benefits. Maybe changing that?
