Why?

To receive unemployment benefit, you generally need to have lost your job involuntarily (dismissal, end of a fixed-term contract (CDD), termination by mutual agreement (rupture conventionnelle)) and to have worked for a minimum period before. You must also be registered with France Travail and be actively looking for a job. Resigning gives the right to unemployment benefit only in certain specific cases.
