As to the period over which unemployment benefit is paid, the current regulations define three categories. The first is workers who have participated in the unemployment insurance scheme for between one and five years: in any period of unemployment they can collect a maximum of three months 'benefit, and however many times they are unemployed during the first five years, they cannot collect more than six months' benefit in total.
至於給付期限，目前的規定分三種：第一是失業保險投保年資一年以上、未滿五年的受雇者，失業時每次最高可以請領三個月給付，而五年內不管失業幾次，合作請領的給付不得超過六個月。
