One can be unemployed - as defined by USDOL - and never have worked before, or not have worked in 10 years.

Unemployed, as a term, could mean anyone who is not employed, ; the retired, school and college students, carers, even prisoners and etc .

Those OUTSIDE the workforce (retired, prisoners, active military) can never be called unemployed.

as a result of becoming unemployed, that person then makes some kind of claim to the Unemployment departments where they live.

You receive unemployment (benefits) when you lost your job and qualify under the state's laws. You receive Social Security benefits on or after turning 62 and it's based on the last 40 quarters earnings you made, and regardless the status of your job.
