Introduced

SB 90 - Under this act, a person claiming unemployment benefits is required to make three work search contacts during any week in which such benefits are claimed.

The act additionally modifies the following provisions to either require or allow for communication with the Division of Employment Security through electronic means:

• All employers of 50 or more workers are required to report quarterly wage information to the Division in an electronic format prescribed by the Division;

• Any notice, determination, decision, or other paper required under the employment security chapter may be transmitted solely by electronic means, unless an alternative manner is requested; and

• Any function required to be performed by the Division may be performed by a computer or other automated means.

The records of the Division shall constitute prima facie evidence of the date of the electronic transmission of any notice, determination, or other paper electronically transmitted under the employment security chapter.

This act is substantially similar to provisions in HB 277 (2019), HB 371 (2019), and HB 373 (2019).
