《皇冠搏彩APP下载》下的新失业救济金

最近颁布的冠状病毒援助, 救济和经济安全法案, 被称为关怀法案, includes three new federally-funded programs to provide additional unemployment compensation for workers.  而联邦政府正在提供资金, the programs will be administered by the states as part of their unemployment insurance systems. 以下是每个节目的简要总结.

大流行病失业援助

The CARES Act creates the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) program for individuals who are unemployed because of COVID-19.  这是一个临时的联邦计划，时间范围从1月27日开始, 2020年和12月31日, 2020.

PUA计划提供失业救济金, 即流行病紧急失业补偿(PEUC), to workers who have exhausted their benefits and those who are not traditionally covered by unemployment insurance, 比如个体户, 独立承包人, 演出人员, 神职人员, 寻求兼职工作的人士, 以及那些没有足够工作经历的人.  该计划为符合条件的工人提供长达39周的福利.  The 39-week limitation includes any weeks for which the covered individual receives unemployment or extended benefits under any federal or state law.

PUA is not 可用 to individuals who are teleworking or who are on some form of paid leave, 除非他们的工资或休假福利比他们通常得到的少.  为了获得PUA资格, an individual must self-certify that he or she is otherwise able to work and 可用 to work, 但他们要么(a)失业, (b)部分失业, or (c) is unable to work or un可用 to work because of one of the following reasons:

1. The individual has been diagnosed with COVID-19 or is experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 and is seeking a medical diagnosis. 这包括与COVID-19患者有过接触的人, 结果是, 是否建议他/她辞职并隔离.
2. 该个人的一名家庭成员被诊断患有COVID-19.
3. The individual is providing care for a family member or a member of the individual’s household who has been diagnosed with COVID-19.
4. A child or other person in the household for which the individual has primary caregiving responsibility is unable to attend school or another facility that is closed as a direct result of the COVID-19 public health emergency and such school or facility care is required for the individual to work. This includes individuals who could telework but are unable to due to constant caregiving.
5. The individual is unable to reach the place of employment because of a quarantine imposed as a direct result of the COVID-19 public health emergency.
6. The individual is unable to reach the place of employment because the individual has been advised by a health care provider to self-quarantine due to concerns related to COVID-19. This includes individuals who have come into direct contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19 and individuals who have health conditions that have compromised their immune system.
7. The individual was scheduled to commence employment and does not have a job or is unable to reach the job as a direct result of the COVID-19 public health emergency.
8. The individual has become the breadwinner or major support for a household because the head of the household has died as a direct result of COVID-19.
9. 因COVID-19直接导致的个人必须辞职. An example would be someone who has recovered from COVID-19 but is still experiencing health conditions caused by the illness that prevent the individual from being able to work.
10. The individual’s place of employment is closed as a direct result of the COVID-19 public health emergency.
11. The individual meets any additional criteria established by the Secretary of Labor for unemployment assistance under this section. The Secretary has already determined that 独立承包人 and 演出人员 may qualify for PUA benefits if they are unemployed, 部分失业, or are unable to work or un可用 for work due to fact that the COVID-19 health emergency has severely restricted their ability to work.

Individuals are not qualified for PUA if they are able to telework with pay or are on some form of paid leave where they receive their customary number of hours.

额外增加的福利

除了PUA, the CARES Act also includes provisions that increase the amount of unemployment benefits.  与为, individuals qualifying for increased benefits do not have to certify that they are unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

具体来说，《皇冠搏彩APP下载》允许各州报销以下费用:

1. An extra $600 per week for payments made by the state to individuals eligible for unemployment benefits between April 5, 2020年和7月31日, 2020年(联邦大流行病就业补偿);
2. 额外13周的福利, 截至十二月三十一日, 2020, 给那些用尽了国家福利又有能力的人, 可用, and actively seeking work; and
3. 相当于第一周失业救济金的补偿, intended to incentivize states that require a one-week waiting period to receive benefits to waive the requirement.

Individuals who receive an extra 13 weeks of benefits are also eligible during that time for the new $600 weekly increase.

短期补偿

The CARES Act also provides funding for states that create Short-Time Compensation (STC) programs in order to provide an alternative to layoffs.  弗吉尼亚州在2014年创建了这样一个项目, 但由于没有收到必要的联邦资金，该法案于2016年被废除.  这些计划适用于雇主将其工作时间减少10%以上的工人, 但不超过60%, 代替裁员.  Employees can receive a pro-rata amount of unemployment compensation based on what they would have received had they remained fully employed.  与PUA一样，STC将于2020年12月31日结束.  《皇冠搏彩APP下载》鼓励各州建立STC项目, it is unlikely that Virginia will be able to benefit from this part of the legislation because it has no such program in place and the 2020 legislative session has ended.
