Anyone who lost their job because they contracted the virus, or are caregiving for someone who has, could receive as much as $1,300 a week. Thousands of industry workers have been thrown out of work in recent days as film and TV productions have shut down all across the state. The job losses are real, but the EDD notes that “There is no evidence of widespread transmission of COVID-19 in California at this time.
If you’re unable to work due to having or being exposed to COVID-19, as certified by a medical professional, you can file a Disability Insurance claim. DI provides short-term benefit payments to eligible workers who have a full or partial loss of wages due to a non-work-related illness, injury, or pregnancy. Benefit amounts are approximately 60-70 percent of wages and range from $50-$1,300 a week.
If you’re unable to work because you’re caring for an ill or quarantined family member with COVID-19, as certified by a medical professional, you can file a Paid Family Leave claim. PFL provides up to six weeks of benefit payments to eligible workers who have a full or partial loss of wages because they need time off work to care for a seriously ill family member. Benefit amounts are approximately 60-70% of wages, depending on income, and range from $50-$1,300 a week.
The EDD notes that money is also available for parents who miss work to take care of their children because of school closures – and schools have been shutting down across the city and the state to prevent the spread of the virus. “If your child’s school is closed, and you have to miss work to be there for them, you may be eligible for Unemployment Insurance benefits.
AxelleCarolyn What about actors waiting to hear if that new Disney movie job comes through?
Great! Everyone, that has to leave their jobs because of this should rightfully receive 'expedited' unemployment benefits, this is beyond our control!! I think that normally it takes three weeks for you to start receiving an unemployment check, that's too long to wait!!
