Bill > S01197

This bill prohibits the inclusion of claims for unemployment insurance arising from the closure of an employer due to COVID-19 in the employer's experience rating charges. This means that employers will not have the amounts paid to their employees from the unemployment insurance fund included in their experience rating, which is used to determine their future unemployment insurance contribution rates. The bill is intended to provide relief to employers whose businesses were impacted by COVID-19-related closures or workforce reductions. The provisions of the bill will expire on December 31, 2021.
