Origin

Old English dāl 'division, portion, or share', of Germanic origin; related to deal¹. The sense 'distribution of charitable gifts' dates from Middle English; the sense 'unemployment benefit' dates from the early 20th century.

A dole was originally a division or share, which in the Middle Ages developed the sense of ‘gift’, particularly food, both senses surviving in modern English when we speak of doling out food to people. The dole, for unemployment benefits appears in the early 20th century. To deal (Old English) is closely related, but the sense of deal for a type of wood is Middle English from Middle Low German or Dutch dele ‘plank’.
