Percent of Labor Force "Potentially Eligible" for Payment
For a Given Week of Unemployment

"Potentially Eligible" means an individual was either paid UI benefits or had their payment denied due to earnings or full-time work during that week of unemployment.
We use the February 2020 Labor Force as a Benchmark. Data from Continuing Claims file, and adjusts for individuals appearing in data solely for underpayment adjustments.
