That's not true. To be eligible for the unemployment benefits you must not break your contract with your employer. That is, you can leave if you respect the terms of the contract.

It's unclear. It says here [0] that in principle you can't get unemployment benefit if you leave your job on your own, although there are exception to that, mainly if you leave your job for family reason (your partner got an opportunity in a different geographical area), or if you experimented unprofessional behavior at your previous company, such as sexual harassment. In the link I gave, it says that you can get unemployment if you leave to create your own company, but here [1] it says that if you leave to create your own company and it doesn't take off, you will be able to get unemployment benefit ("Démission pour reprise ou création entreprise : Et, si pour des raisons qui ne sont pas de votre fait cette nouvelle activité s’arrête, vous pourrez alors récupérer le cas échéant votre droit à des indemnités de chômage."). I am a French expat so my knowledge of this might be a bit off, but I am still interested in that subject.

  Sorry for the late reply S4M. I think there is a confusion between "leaving your job on your own" and leaving in a consensual way with your employer. Most of the time, when you decide to leave, you make a departure plan with your employer. If your employer agree with your decision, you generally leave after 3 month or so (depending on the terms of the contract). You can then ask for you unemployment benefits.

    For me it's very ambiguous and I would really check it before leaving my job if I was planning to use unemployment benefit to finance a startup. What are your sources?
