Shared Work Can Help Avoid Layoffs
The Shared Work Program gives businesses an alternative to laying off workers during business downturns by allowing employees to work a reduced work schedule, collect partial unemployment insurance benefits, and retain their health insurance benefits. The program is designed to help businesses save on labor costs while retaining valued employees who have crucial skills, knowledge, and experience.
