Workers Pay No Part of the Cost for
Unemployment Insurance
Unemployment Insurance Tax:
Often unemployed workers tell us that unemployment
insurance is due them “because they have paid for it.”
This is not true. Not one cent is deducted from your pay in South Carolina to cover unemployment
insurance. Your employer pays the entire
unemployment insurance tax.
Social Security Tax
Don’t confuse unemployment insurance with old age,
survivors and disability insurance. The amount deducted from your wages as social security is your contribution to old-age, survivors and disability
insurance. The employer contributes an equal amount, in addition to his payment of the full unemployment insurance tax.
