Title: Part-Time Work Unemployment Benefits

Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to pass a bill making part-time employees or those seeking part-time work eligible for jobless benefits such as job training programs.

Highlights:

-Mandates that even if a majority of an individual's work time includes part-time work, the individual will not be denied benefits due to being available only for part-time work, only seeking part-time work or refusing an offer of full-time work (Sec. 28). -Defines part-time work during the individual's benefit year as work at least 16 hours but less than 40 hours a calendar week. (Sec. 28). -Provides that this bill can only be enacted if HB 4785 is also enacted into law. (Sec. 28).

NOTE: THIS IS A SUBSTITUTE BILL, MEANING THE LANGUAGE OF THE ORIGINAL BILL HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE DEGREE TO WHICH THE SUBSTITUTE BILL TEXT DIFFERS FROM THE PREVIOUS VERSION OF THE TEXT CAN VARY GREATLY.
