Thank you for the question.
One thing your question makes me think of is another recommendation we have in the report about the over-credentialed working class and the importance of lifelong learning. There are different kinds of unemployment, but when someone becomes unemployed because of a structural problem in the economy, because their skills are no longer needed by an industry or something like that, then it calls for a different approach.
EI might be part of it, but EI probably also needs to be paired with some support for lifelong learning. This is especially acute, given the data I was pointing to about how many institutions don't always do a very good job of preparing people for the workforce, which means that people will need more microcredentials as they go forward.
I hope this answers your question.
