Law Update Regarding Eligibility for UI Benefits During Summer Months
|
|
A law was passed amending the Between Terms Language as it relates to non-instructional staff.
This law may affect you if you worked for an educational institution and were a paraprofessional, bus driver, office worker, support staff, or other non-instructional employee. The law is effective May 28, 2023.

What does the change do?
- The change to the law means the Between Terms provision no longer applies to non-instructional staff beginning with the 2023 between term summer period.
- In other words, if you work for an educational institution in a non-instructional position and are unemployed at the end of a school term, you will be able to use the wages that you earned from that employer in the calculation of your weekly benefit amount -- even if you are returning to the same or a similar job during the next school term.
- Federal law requires that the Between Terms provision continues to apply to those working in an instructional capacity.
