New data from the 2022 Employment Insurance Coverage Survey (EICS) provide an overview of who does or does not have access to regular Employment Insurance (EI) benefits, and why people may not have access to benefits. The survey also covers Canadian parents' use of the maternity and parental benefits available under the EI program. All these benefits provide temporary income support while people are not working.
