What if my ability to work is affected by the coronavirus emergency?

California’s Employment Development Department (EDD) may be able to help if you are sick or quarantined, caring for an ill or quarantined family member or have reduced work hours. Workers who are sick or quarantined can file a Disability Insurance Claim for short term benefits. Caregivers can file a Paid Family Leave Claim for up to six weeks of benefits. If a business shuts down or reduces hours, workers can file a Unemployment Insurance Claim for weekly benefits.
