§ 10214 Unemployment Insurance Participant History

This law tells the Employment Development Department to keep a running record of jobs, pay, and benefits for people who get unemployment insurance, so lawmakers can see how the program works over time.

Key Takeaways

  • •The department must create and keep a continuous record of employment, wages, and benefits for anyone on unemployment insurance.
  • •The record is used by a panel and the Legislature to see how the program works over many years.
  • •The rule started on Jan 1 2009 after being added in 2008.

Example

Jane loses her job and starts receiving unemployment benefits. Every month the department adds her new job history, wages, and any benefits she gets back into a single file.

Because of this law, the department will always have Jane’s complete work and benefit history, which helps the state check if the unemployment program is helping people the right way.
