摘要	An extensive literature documents large and persistent declines in earnings following job loss. We study how the public safety net mitigates this using the 1996-2013 Survey of Income and Program Participation. Using an individual fixed effects model, we document which public programs provide the most insurance, and how this varies by pre-job loss characteristics. We find that Unemployment Insurance provides the largest buffer against lost income, but that the neediest are less well insured compared to middle- and higher- income job losers. This has important implications for the progressivity of the safety net, and how best to support displaced workers.
