What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Workforce Development (DWD), when

issuing a determination about eligibility for benefits under the unemployment

insurance (UI) law or a determination relating to any other law regulating

employment that is administered by DWD that is adverse to the interests of an

employee, and when issuing a computation of UI benefits, to provide to the employee

information about resources that may be available to assist the employee regarding

the adverse determination or computation. The bill also requires DWD to maintain

a telephone number so that such an employee who is adversely affected by a

determination or computation may call DWD to ask questions about the

determination or computation.
