Is unemployment compensation public record?

Question

Will a background check find out if you ever collected unemployment?

Answer 1

It shouldn't matter. Unemployment is an employer provided, state controlled insurance program. All the time you work you are contributing to the fund, so you have every right to use the money when necessary. No employer should have a problem with you ever collecting unemployment, and if they do, report them for discrimination.

Answer 2

Not in the state of Oregon
