Data analytics for unemployment incurance claims : framework, approaches, and implementations strategies

Unemployment Insurance serves as a vital economic stabiliser, offering financial assistance and promoting workforce reintegration. In Sweden, occupation-specific unemployment funds, known as "Arbetslöshetskassan" (A-KASSAN), manage these claims. New complex challenges pertaining to A-KASSAN's decision-making process and unemployment insurance claims necessitate a holistic data analytics framework, innovative modelling approaches, and effective implementation strategies.  This study aims to establish a comprehensive approach to data analytics for unemployment insurance claims to provide a more accurate prediction model to aid A-KASSAN's decision-making. It accomplishes this through three main objectives: the development of a thorough framework employing management data analytics for claim analysis; advancement in modelling approaches to predict unemployment trends; and deliberation on effective strategies to visualise the developed solutions.  Drawing on Data Science, Computer Science, and Economics and Management Science, this study has crafted a four-tiered comprehensive framework encompassing descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive analytics. It has explored novel methodologies, formulated a model library, devised rules for result integration, and validated these through case studies. The model library showcases diverse models from Economic modelling, Statistical modelling, Big Data analytics with Machine Learning and Deep Learning, alongside hybrid modelling strategies. This study primarily concentrates on developing visualisation tools as an implementation strategy. In a summary, this study provides A-KASSAN with an approach to overcome two central issues: the lack of a comprehensive data analytics approach for unemployment insurance claims, including a framework and predictive modelling, and a dearth of visualisation solutions for management data analytics pertinent to these claims.
