Özet
Unemployment can negatively affect individuals and families in various ways. When individuals are unemployed, they may experience mental and physical health problems as well as loss of income. This study aims to examine the impact of unemployment benefits on health. Turkish Statistical Institute (TURKSTAT) \"Income and Living Conditions Survey Micro Panel Dataset (2015-2018)\" is used for the analysis. In analysis \"Fixed Effects Method\", which is one of the important panel data methods, is used. Findings have shown that unemployment benefits have a positive effect on health. Moreover, we show that unemployment benefits play an important role in terms of health improvement. Another important finding is that the health of individuals worsens with the increase in education level and income. Since it was concluded in the study that unemployment benefits improve the health of individuals, policies for developing countries such as Turkey to increase the budget allocated to unemployment benefits are among the recommendations of the study.
