This question is about dislocated worker.
Who is considered a displaced worker?
An individual is considered a displaced worker if they have been fired or laid off, been notified that they will be laid off, are self-employed and out of work due to economic conditions or a natural disaster, or you're dependent on a family member who's been laid off or underemployed in the army.
The specific conditions for displaced worker status change state by state, but these are the most common examples of individuals who qualify as displaced workers.
In all examples, the displaced worker is not responsible for their job loss. Whether it be extreme economic conditions like we've all just lived through or a company merging with another, the layoffs have to do with the general economic climate rather than the performance of the employee.
