(820 ILCS 405/239) (from Ch. 48, par. 349)
Sec. 239.
"Unemployed individual".
An individual shall be deemed unemployed in any week with respect to
which no wages are payable to him and during which he performs no services
or in any week of less than full-time work if the wages payable to him with
respect to such week are less than his weekly benefit amount. The Director
shall prescribe regulations applicable to unemployed individuals making
such distinctions in the procedures as to total unemployment, part-total
unemployment, partial unemployment of individuals, and other forms of
short-time work as the Director deems necessary.
An individual's week of unemployment shall be deemed to commence only
after his registration at an employment office, except as the Director may
by regulation otherwise prescribe if he finds that the foregoing
requirement with respect to registration would be inequitable or
administratively impracticable.
