What’s in it
Under current law, the department of workforce development may establish by rule a process to waive or alter the work search requirements for a claim for unemployment benefits if an individual has a reasonable expectation that the individual will be returning to employment and is attached to a regular job or industry or a member in good standing of a union therein eligible for referral for employment. To be considered attached to a regular job or industry, an individual must be on a short-term temporary layoff, defined as a layoff period of weeks or less, with a specific return-to-work date verified by the employer, due to seasonal weather conditions that impact the ability of the individual to perform work related to highway construction, repair, or maintenance.
