Employment Insurance (EI) provides income to eligible
employees laid off due to work shortage or not working due to pregnancy,
or illness/injury where sick pay is unavailable.
Participation is mandatory and the benefits are
earnings-related.
Your contributions are deducted from your paycheque
and forwarded to CCRA along with your employer's contribution.
Contributions are based on your "insurable
hours/earnings" with a maximum contribution set annually by CCRA.
Additional information about EI is available from
your local Federal
Human Resources Development Office.
