Tractor trailer owner operator, how do you obtain unemployment?

I am considering taking on the job as a lease pruchase tractor trailer driver after many yrs of running as a company driver. My question is what if you need to collect unemployment from the government. Can you collect as did the company or you as a business owner, did they pay money towards unempolyment insurance?
