Washington State Employment Security Department (WAESD)

WAESD helps people succeed throughout their working lives by supporting workers during times of unemployment, tracking and analyzing labor market trends, and linking businesses and job seekers to a diverse range of employment services provided by the state's WorkSource system.

To apply for unemployment benefits: If you have been laid off or lost your job through no fault of your own, you may qualify for unemployment insurance benefits. These benefits are a temporary source of income while you look for work - or in limited, approved cases - while you retrain.
