1 | AN ACT concerning employment.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
4 | Section 5. The Unemployment Insurance Act is amended by | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
5 | changing Section 409 as follows:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
6 | (820 ILCS 405/409) (from Ch. 48, par. 409)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Sec. 409. Extended Benefits.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
8 | A. For the purposes of this Section:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
9 | 1. "Extended benefit period" means a period which | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
10 | begins with
the third week after a week for which there is | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
11 | a State "on" indicator; and
ends with either of the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
12 | following weeks, whichever occurs later: (1) the
third week | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
13 | after the first week for which there is a
State "off" | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
14 | indicator, or (2) the thirteenth consecutive week of such
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
15 | period. No extended benefit period shall begin by reason of | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
16 | a State
"on" indicator before the fourteenth week following | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
17 | the end of a prior
extended benefit period.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
18 | 2. There is a "State 'on' indicator" for a week if the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
19 | Director
determines, in accordance with the regulations of | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
20 | the United States
Secretary of Labor or other appropriate | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
21 | Federal agency, that for the
period consisting of such week | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
22 | and the immediately preceding twelve
weeks, the rate of | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
23 | insured unemployment (not seasonally adjusted) in
this |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | State (a) equaled or exceeded 4% and equaled or exceeded | ||||||
2 | 120% of
the average of such rates for the corresponding | ||||||
3 | 13-week period ending in
each of the preceding two calendar | ||||||
4 | years, or (b) equaled or exceeded 5%;
for weeks beginning | ||||||
5 | after September 25, 1982 (1) equaled or exceeded 5%
and | ||||||
6 | equaled or exceeded 120% of the average of such rates for | ||||||
7 | the corresponding
13-week period ending in each of the | ||||||
8 | preceding 2 calendar years, or (2)
equaled or exceeded 6 | ||||||
9 | percent.
| ||||||
10 | 3. There is a "State 'off' indicator" for a week if the | ||||||
11 | Director
determines, in accordance with the regulations of | ||||||
12 | the United States
Secretary of Labor or other appropriate | ||||||
13 | Federal agency, that for the
period consisting of such week | ||||||
14 | and the immediately preceding twelve
weeks, the rate of | ||||||
15 | insured unemployment (not seasonally adjusted) in
this | ||||||
16 | State (a) was less than 5% and was less than 120%
of the | ||||||
17 | average of such rates
for the corresponding 13-week period | ||||||
18 | ending in each of the preceding 2
calendar years, or (b) | ||||||
19 | was less than 4%; and for weeks beginning after
September | ||||||
20 | 25, 1982, (1) was less than 6% and less than 120% of the | ||||||
21 | average
of such rates for the corresponding 13-week period | ||||||
22 | ending in each of the
preceding 2 calendar years, or (2) | ||||||
23 | was less than 5%.
| ||||||
24 | 4. "Rate of insured unemployment", for the purpose of | ||||||
25 | paragraphs
2 and 3, means the percentage derived by | ||||||
26 | dividing (a) the average
weekly number of individuals |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | filing claims for "regular benefits" in
this State for | ||||||
2 | weeks of
unemployment with respect to the most recent 13 | ||||||
3 | consecutive week period,
as determined by the Director on | ||||||
4 | the basis of his reports to the United
States Secretary of | ||||||
5 | Labor or other appropriate Federal agency, by (b)
the | ||||||
6 | average monthly employment covered under this Act for the | ||||||
7 | first four
of the most recent six completed calendar | ||||||
8 | quarters ending before the
close of such 13-week period.
| ||||||
9 | 5. "Regular benefits" means benefits, other than | ||||||
10 | extended benefits
and additional benefits, payable to an | ||||||
11 | individual (including dependents'
allowances) under this | ||||||
12 | Act or under any other State unemployment
compensation law | ||||||
13 | (including benefits payable to Federal civilian
employees | ||||||
14 | and ex-servicemen pursuant to 5 U.S.C. chapter 85).
| ||||||
15 | 6. "Extended benefits" means benefits (including | ||||||
16 | benefits payable to
Federal civilian employees and | ||||||
17 | ex-servicemen pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
chapter 85) payable to | ||||||
18 | an individual under the provisions of this
Section for | ||||||
19 | weeks which begin in his eligibility period.
| ||||||
20 | 7. "Additional benefits" means benefits totally | ||||||
21 | financed by a State
and payable to exhaustees (as defined | ||||||
22 | in subsection C) by reason of
conditions of high | ||||||
23 | unemployment or by reason of other specified factors.
If an | ||||||
24 | individual is eligible to receive extended benefits under | ||||||
25 | the
provisions of this Section and is eligible to receive | ||||||
26 | additional
benefits with respect to the same week under the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | law of another State,
he may elect to claim either extended | ||||||
2 | benefits or additional benefits
with respect to the week.
| ||||||
3 | 8. "Eligibility period" means the period consisting of | ||||||
4 | the weeks in
an individual's benefit year which begin in an | ||||||
5 | extended benefit period
and, if his benefit year ends | ||||||
6 | within such extended benefit period, any
weeks thereafter | ||||||
7 | which begin in such period.
| ||||||
8 | 9. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of Sections | ||||||
9 | 1404, 1405B, and
1501, no employer shall be liable for | ||||||
10 | payments in lieu of contributions, and
wages shall not | ||||||
11 | become benefit wages, by reason of the payment of extended
| ||||||
12 | benefits which are wholly reimbursed to this State by the | ||||||
13 | Federal Government.
With respect to extended benefits, | ||||||
14 | paid prior to July 1, 1989, wages shall
become benefit | ||||||
15 | wages under Section 1501 only when an individual is
first | ||||||
16 | paid such benefits with respect to his eligibility period | ||||||
17 | which
are not wholly reimbursed to this State by the | ||||||
18 | Federal Government.
Extended benefits, paid on or after | ||||||
19 | July 1, 1989, shall become benefit
charges under Section | ||||||
20 | 1501.1 only when any individual is paid such benefits
with | ||||||
21 | respect to his eligibility period which are not wholly | ||||||
22 | reimbursed by
the Federal Government.
| ||||||
23 | B. An individual shall be eligible to receive extended | ||||||
24 | benefits
pursuant to this Section for any week which begins in | ||||||
25 | his eligibility
period if, with respect to such week (1) he has | ||||||
26 | been paid wages for insured
work during his base period equal |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | to at least 1 1/2 times the wages paid
in that calendar quarter | ||||||
2 | of his base period in which such wages were highest,
provided | ||||||
3 | that this provision applies only with respect to weeks | ||||||
4 | beginning
after September 25, 1982; (2) he has met the | ||||||
5 | requirements of Section 500E
of this Act; (3) he is an | ||||||
6 | exhaustee; and (4) except when the result
would be inconsistent | ||||||
7 | with the provisions of this
Section, he has satisfied the | ||||||
8 | requirements of this Act for the receipt
of regular benefits.
| ||||||
9 | C. An individual is an exhaustee with respect to a week | ||||||
10 | which begins
in his eligibility period if:
| ||||||
11 | 1. Prior to such week (a) he has received, with respect | ||||||
12 | to his
current benefit year that includes such week, the | ||||||
13 | maximum total amount
of benefits to which he was entitled | ||||||
14 | under the provisions of Section
403B, and all of the | ||||||
15 | regular benefits (including dependents' allowances)
to | ||||||
16 | which he had entitlement (if any) on the basis of wages or | ||||||
17 | employment
under any other State unemployment compensation | ||||||
18 | law; or (b) he has
received all the regular benefits | ||||||
19 | available to him with respect to his
current benefit year | ||||||
20 | that includes such week, under this Act and under
any other | ||||||
21 | State unemployment compensation law, after a cancellation | ||||||
22 | of
some or all of his wage credits or the partial or total | ||||||
23 | reduction of his
regular benefit rights; or (c) his benefit | ||||||
24 | year terminated, and he
cannot meet the qualifying wage | ||||||
25 | requirements of Section 500E of this Act
or the qualifying | ||||||
26 | wage or employment requirements of any other State
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | unemployment compensation law to establish a new benefit | ||||||
2 | year which
would include such week or, having established a | ||||||
3 | new benefit year that
includes such week, he is ineligible | ||||||
4 | for regular benefits by reason of
Section 607 of this Act | ||||||
5 | or a like provision of any other State
unemployment | ||||||
6 | compensation law; and
| ||||||
7 | 2. For such week (a) he has no right to benefits or | ||||||
8 | allowances, as
the case may be, under the Railroad | ||||||
9 | Unemployment Insurance Act, or such other
Federal laws as | ||||||
10 | are specified in regulations of the United States
Secretary | ||||||
11 | of Labor or other appropriate Federal agency; and (b) he | ||||||
12 | has
not received and is not seeking benefits under the | ||||||
13 | unemployment
compensation law of Canada, except that if he
| ||||||
14 | is seeking such benefits and the appropriate agency finally | ||||||
15 | determines
that he is not entitled to benefits under such | ||||||
16 | law, this clause shall
not apply.
| ||||||
17 | 3. For the purposes of clauses (a) and (b) of paragraph | ||||||
18 | 1 of this
subsection, an individual shall be deemed to have | ||||||
19 | received, with respect
to his current benefit year, the | ||||||
20 | maximum total amount of benefits to
which he was entitled | ||||||
21 | or all of the regular benefits to which he had
entitlement, | ||||||
22 | or all of the regular benefits available to him, as the
| ||||||
23 | case may be, even though (a) as a result of a pending | ||||||
24 | reconsideration or
appeal with respect to the "finding" | ||||||
25 | defined in Section 701, or of a
pending appeal with respect | ||||||
26 | to wages or employment or both under any
other State |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | unemployment compensation law, he may subsequently be
| ||||||
2 | determined to be entitled to more regular benefits; or (b) | ||||||
3 | by reason of
a seasonality provision in a State | ||||||
4 | unemployment compensation law which
establishes the weeks | ||||||
5 | of the year for which regular benefits may be paid
to | ||||||
6 | individuals on the basis of wages in seasonal employment he | ||||||
7 | may be
entitled to regular benefits for future weeks but | ||||||
8 | such benefits are not
payable with respect to the week for | ||||||
9 | which he is claiming extended
benefits, provided that he is | ||||||
10 | otherwise an exhaustee under the
provisions of this | ||||||
11 | subsection with respect to his rights to regular
benefits, | ||||||
12 | under such seasonality provision, during the portion of the
| ||||||
13 | year in which that week occurs; or (c) having established a | ||||||
14 | benefit
year, no regular benefits are payable to him with | ||||||
15 | respect to such year
because his wage credits were | ||||||
16 | cancelled or his rights to regular
benefits were totally | ||||||
17 | reduced by reason of the application of a
disqualification | ||||||
18 | provision of a State unemployment compensation law.
| ||||||
19 | D. 1. The provisions of Section 607 and the waiting period
| ||||||
20 | requirements of Section 500D shall not be applicable to any | ||||||
21 | week with
respect to which benefits are otherwise payable | ||||||
22 | under this Section.
| ||||||
23 | 2. An individual shall not cease to be an exhaustee | ||||||
24 | with respect to
any week solely because he meets the | ||||||
25 | qualifying wage requirements of
Section 500E for a part of | ||||||
26 | such week.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | 3. For the purposes of this Section, the "base period" | ||||||
2 | referred to
in Sections 601 and 602 shall be the base | ||||||
3 | period with respect to the
benefit year in which the | ||||||
4 | individual's eligibility period begins.
| ||||||
5 | E. With respect to any week which begins in his eligibility | ||||||
6 | period,
an exhaustee's "weekly extended benefit amount" shall | ||||||
7 | be the same as his
weekly benefit amount during his benefit | ||||||
8 | year which includes such week or, if
such week is not in a | ||||||
9 | benefit year, during his applicable
benefit year, as defined in | ||||||
10 | regulations issued by the United States
Secretary of Labor or | ||||||
11 | other appropriate Federal agency. If the exhaustee
had more | ||||||
12 | than one weekly benefit amount during
his benefit year, his | ||||||
13 | weekly extended benefit amount with respect to
such week shall | ||||||
14 | be the latest of such weekly benefit amounts.
| ||||||
15 | F. An eligible exhaustee shall be entitled, during any | ||||||
16 | eligibility
period, to a maximum total amount of extended | ||||||
17 | benefits equal to the
lesser of the following amounts:
| ||||||
18 | 1. Fifty percent of the maximum total amount of | ||||||
19 | benefits to which he
was entitled under Section 403B during | ||||||
20 | his applicable benefit year; or
| ||||||
21 | 2. Thirteen times his weekly extended benefit amount as | ||||||
22 | determined
under subsection E.
| ||||||
23 | 3. Notwithstanding subparagraphs 1 and 2 of this | ||||||
24 | subsection F, and if
the benefit year of an individual ends | ||||||
25 | within an extended benefit period,
the remaining balance of | ||||||
26 | extended benefits that the individual would, but
for this |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | subsection F, be otherwise entitled to receive in that | ||||||
2 | extended
benefit period, for weeks of unemployment | ||||||
3 | beginning after the end of the
benefit year, shall be | ||||||
4 | reduced (but not below zero) by the product of the
number | ||||||
5 | of weeks for which the individual received any amounts as | ||||||
6 | trade
readjustment allowances as defined in the federal | ||||||
7 | Trade Act of 1974 within
that benefit year multiplied by | ||||||
8 | his weekly benefit amount for extended
benefits.
| ||||||
9 | G. 1. A claims adjudicator shall examine the first claim | ||||||
10 | filed by
an individual with respect to his eligibility | ||||||
11 | period and, on the basis
of the information in his | ||||||
12 | possession, shall make an "extended benefits
finding". | ||||||
13 | Such finding shall state whether or not the individual has | ||||||
14 | met
the requirement of subsection B(1), is an
exhaustee | ||||||
15 | and, if he is, his weekly extended benefit amount and the
| ||||||
16 | maximum total amount of extended benefits to which he is | ||||||
17 | entitled. The
claims adjudicator shall promptly notify the | ||||||
18 | individual of his "extended
benefits finding", and shall | ||||||
19 | promptly notify the individual's most
recent employing | ||||||
20 | unit, with respect to benefit years beginning on or
after | ||||||
21 | July 1, 1989 and the individual's last employer (referred | ||||||
22 | to in Section
1502.1) that the individual has filed a claim | ||||||
23 | for extended benefits. The
claims adjudicator may | ||||||
24 | reconsider his "extended benefits finding" at any time
| ||||||
25 | within one year after the close of the individual's | ||||||
26 | eligibility period, and
shall promptly notify the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | individual of such reconsidered finding. All of the
| ||||||
2 | provisions of this Act applicable to reviews from findings | ||||||
3 | or reconsidered
findings made pursuant to Sections 701 and | ||||||
4 | 703 which are not inconsistent with
the provisions of this | ||||||
5 | subsection shall be applicable to reviews from extended
| ||||||
6 | benefits findings and reconsidered extended benefits | ||||||
7 | findings.
| ||||||
8 | 2. If, pursuant to the reconsideration or appeal with | ||||||
9 | respect to a
"finding", referred to in paragraph 3 of | ||||||
10 | subsection C, an exhaustee is
found to be entitled to more | ||||||
11 | regular benefits and, by reason thereof, is
entitled to | ||||||
12 | more extended benefits, the claims adjudicator shall make a
| ||||||
13 | reconsidered extended benefits finding and shall promptly | ||||||
14 | notify the
exhaustee thereof.
| ||||||
15 | H. Whenever an extended benefit period is to begin in this | ||||||
16 | State because
there is a State "on" indicator, or whenever an | ||||||
17 | extended benefit period is to
end in this State because there | ||||||
18 | is a State "off" indicator, the Director shall
make an | ||||||
19 | appropriate public announcement.
| ||||||
20 | I. Computations required by the provisions of paragraph 6 | ||||||
21 | of subsection A
shall be made by the Director in accordance | ||||||
22 | with regulations prescribed by the
United States Secretary of | ||||||
23 | Labor, or other appropriate Federal agency.
| ||||||
24 | J. 1. Interstate Benefit Payment Plan means the plan | ||||||
25 | approved by
the Interstate Conference of Employment | ||||||
26 | Security Agencies under which benefits
shall be payable to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | unemployed individuals absent from the state (or states)
in | ||||||
2 | which benefit credits have been accumulated.
| ||||||
3 | 2. An individual who commutes from his state of | ||||||
4 | residence to work in
another state and continues to reside | ||||||
5 | in such state of residence while filing
his claim for | ||||||
6 | unemployment insurance under this Section of the Act shall | ||||||
7 | not be
considered filing a claim under the Interstate | ||||||
8 | Benefit Payment Plan so long as
he files his claim in and | ||||||
9 | continues to report to the employment office under
the | ||||||
10 | regulations applicable to intrastate claimants in the | ||||||
11 | state in which he was
so employed.
| ||||||
12 | 3. "State" when used in this subsection includes States | ||||||
13 | of the United
States of America, the District of Columbia, | ||||||
14 | Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands. For purposes of this | ||||||
15 | subsection, the term "state" shall also be
construed to | ||||||
16 | include Canada.
| ||||||
17 | 4. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, | ||||||
18 | effective with weeks
beginning on or after June 1, 1981 an | ||||||
19 | individual shall be eligible for a
maximum of 2 weeks of | ||||||
20 | benefits payable under this Section after he files
his | ||||||
21 | initial claim for extended benefits in an extended benefit | ||||||
22 | period, as
defined in paragraph 1 of subsection A, under | ||||||
23 | the Interstate Benefit Payment
Plan unless there also | ||||||
24 | exists an extended benefit period, as defined in
paragraph | ||||||
25 | 1 of subsection A, in the state where such claim is filed. | ||||||
26 | Such
maximum eligibility shall continue as long as the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | individual continues to
file his claim under the Interstate | ||||||
2 | Benefit Payment Plan, notwithstanding
that the individual | ||||||
3 | moves to another state where an extended benefit period
| ||||||
4 | exists and files for weeks prior to his initial Interstate | ||||||
5 | claim in that state.
| ||||||
6 | 5. To assure full tax credit to the employers of this | ||||||
7 | state against the
tax imposed by the Federal Unemployment | ||||||
8 | Tax Act, the Director shall take
any action or issue any | ||||||
9 | regulations necessary in the administration of this
| ||||||
10 | subsection to insure that its provisions are so interpreted | ||||||
11 | and applied
as to meet the requirements of such Federal Act | ||||||
12 | as interpreted by the United
States Secretary of Labor or | ||||||
13 | other appropriate Federal agency.
| ||||||
14 | K. 1. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act, an | ||||||
15 | individual
shall be ineligible for the payment of extended | ||||||
16 | benefits for any week of
unemployment in his eligibility | ||||||
17 | period if the Director finds that during such
period:
| ||||||
18 | a. he failed to accept any offer of suitable work | ||||||
19 | (as defined in
paragraph 3 below) or failed to apply | ||||||
20 | for any suitable work to which he was
referred by the | ||||||
21 | Director; or
| ||||||
22 | b. he failed to actively engage in seeking work as | ||||||
23 | prescribed under
paragraph 5 below.
| ||||||
24 | 2. Any individual who has been found ineligible for | ||||||
25 | extended benefits
by reason of the provisions of paragraph | ||||||
26 | 1 of this subsection shall be denied
benefits beginning |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | with the first day of the week in which such failure
has | ||||||
2 | occurred and until he has been employed in each of 4 | ||||||
3 | subsequent weeks
(whether or not consecutive) and has | ||||||
4 | earned remuneration equal to at least
4 times his weekly | ||||||
5 | benefit amount.
| ||||||
6 | 3. For purposes of this subsection only, the term | ||||||
7 | "suitable work" means,
with respect to any individual, any | ||||||
8 | work which is within such individual's
capabilities, | ||||||
9 | provided, however, that the gross average weekly | ||||||
10 | remuneration
payable for the work must exceed the sum of:
| ||||||
11 | a. the individual's extended weekly benefit amount | ||||||
12 | as determined under
subsection E above plus
| ||||||
13 | b. the amount, if any, of supplemental | ||||||
14 | unemployment benefits (as defined
in Section | ||||||
15 | 501(c)(17)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954) | ||||||
16 | payable to
such individual for such week; and further,
| ||||||
17 | c. pays wages not less than the higher of --
| ||||||
18 | (i) the minimum wage provided by Section 6 | ||||||
19 | (a)(1) of the Fair Labor
Standards Act of 1938, | ||||||
20 | without regard to any exemption; or
| ||||||
21 | (ii) the applicable state or local minimum | ||||||
22 | wage;
| ||||||
23 | d. provided, however, that no individual shall be | ||||||
24 | denied extended
benefits for failure to accept an offer | ||||||
25 | of or apply for any job which meets the
definition of | ||||||
26 | suitability as described above if:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (i) the position was not offered to such | ||||||
2 | individual in writing or was
not listed with the | ||||||
3 | employment service;
| ||||||
4 | (ii) such failure could not result in a denial | ||||||
5 | of benefits under the
definition of suitable work | ||||||
6 | for regular benefits claimants in Section 603
to | ||||||
7 | the extent that the criteria of suitability in that | ||||||
8 | Section are not
inconsistent with the provisions | ||||||
9 | of this paragraph 3;
| ||||||
10 | (iii) the individual furnishes satisfactory | ||||||
11 | evidence to the Director
that his prospects for | ||||||
12 | obtaining work in his customary occupation within | ||||||
13 | a
reasonably short period are good. If such | ||||||
14 | evidence is deemed satisfactory
for this purpose, | ||||||
15 | the determination of whether any work is suitable | ||||||
16 | with
respect to such individual shall be made in | ||||||
17 | accordance with the definition
of suitable work | ||||||
18 | for regular benefits in Section 603 without regard | ||||||
19 | to the
definition specified by this paragraph.
| ||||||
20 | 4. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 3 to the | ||||||
21 | contrary, no work
shall be deemed to be suitable work for | ||||||
22 | an individual which does not accord
with the labor standard | ||||||
23 | provisions required by Section 3304(a)(5) of the
Internal | ||||||
24 | Revenue Code of 1954 and set forth herein under Section 603 | ||||||
25 | of this
Act.
| ||||||
26 | 5. For the purposes of subparagraph b of paragraph 1, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | an individual shall
be treated as actively engaged in | ||||||
2 | seeking work during any week if --
| ||||||
3 | a. the individual has engaged in a systematic and | ||||||
4 | sustained effort to
obtain work during such week, and
| ||||||
5 | b. the individual furnishes tangible evidence that | ||||||
6 | he has engaged in
such effort during such week.
| ||||||
7 | 6. The employment service shall refer any individual | ||||||
8 | entitled to extended
benefits under this Act to any | ||||||
9 | suitable work which meets the criteria
prescribed in | ||||||
10 | paragraph 3.
| ||||||
11 | 7. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, an | ||||||
12 | individual shall
not be eligible to receive extended | ||||||
13 | benefits, otherwise payable under this
Section, with | ||||||
14 | respect to any week of unemployment in his eligibility | ||||||
15 | period
