What does "customarily laid off" mean?

Asked by Mariah (25883points) May 31st, 2016

Can’t seem to find an answer to this on Google.

I am applying for unemployment benefits and don’t know how to answer this question: “Are you customarily laid off and do you later return to work with the same or different employer in your industry and/or your occupation?”

I’m not sure whether they’re trying to figure out whether I will ever return to work in the same industry again (to which the answer is yes) or if they’re trying to figure out if I have a date set already at which I know I’ll be back at work (to which the answer is no).
