Minister of Labor, Employment and Social Security, Mohamed Hattab, confirmed that recipients of unemployment benefits are not eligible for survivor's pensions or death benefits. In a response to a parliamentary inquiry, the Minister explained that the unemployment benefit program, governed by the executive decree of February 10, 2022, serves as support for first-time job seekers. He noted that because these individuals are directly affiliated with the social security system—with their contributions covered by the State—they and their dependents already receive health insurance benefits. Consequently, the Minister stated that they do not fall under the category of 'dependents' as defined by Law No. 83-11 of July 2, 1983, which renders them ineligible for survivor-related financial claims.
