Seasonal certification precludes employers from being liable for unemployment benefits directly associated with seasonal work. The Department of Unemployment Assistance (DUA) will exclude wages earned in a seasonally certified position and not charge the employer if an unemployment claim is filed Recreation program and temporary summer positions are most likely to qualify. Note - the application must be filed 60 days in advance of the season!
Paul Scott, Vice President at UTMC and responsible for UI claims management at MIIA USP, will discuss the seasonal certification program and address the following topics:
- Requirements to qualify for seasonal certification status
- How to complete the application for the Seasonal Certification Program in the new state EMT system
- Employer’s responsibilities when responding to a claim involving a certified position
