Unemployment Insurance [760-8230]
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
Human Resources manages the unemployment insurance (UI) activity and budget. Working in conjunction with the
State Employment Development Department, Human Resources evaluates claims for benefits in an effort to manage
the City’s liability in this area.
The City has chosen the self-insured method as the most cost-effective way to manage the City’s unemployment insur-
ance costs; the City reimburses the State for actual costs incurred for the payment of UI benefits. The State bills the
City quarterly; payment to the qualified former employee actually precedes the City’s reimbursement to the State.
FINANCIAL COMMENTS
The City will continue to be challenged with unemployment claim charges due partly to seasonal and temporary em-
ployees filing for unemployment once their temporary assignment has ended and they are separated from employ-
ment with the City. The weekly unemployment insurance benefit amounts range from a minimum of $40 to a maxi-
mum of $450, for up to 26 weeks, depending on the claimant’s past quarterly earnings.
