Idaho Unemployment Insurance Mandatory Posting Update

Posted on by

90406[1]The Idaho Department of Labor has recently updated its mandatory unemployment insurance benefits posting. The posting revisions include a new color scheme, an equal opportunity statement, and a new unemployment insurance filing claim process. Before qualifying to receive payment, the unemployment insurance program requires applicants to meet the following conditions:

  • be totally or partially unemployed through no fault of their own,
  • be a U.S. citizen or legally authorized to work in the U.S.,
  • be available for full-time work,
  • be willing to actively seek full-time work, and
  • establish monetary entitlement to benefits by having sufficient earnings in the base period.

As stated in the revised unemployment posting, employees now have the option to file their unemployment insurance claim online. Claim applications can be accessed and submitted at labor.idaho.gov/claimantportal.  Claims can also be filed at the nearest local Idaho Department of Labor office. For a list of offices, applicants can visit http://labor.idaho.gov/dnn/idl/AboutUs/LocalOfficeDirectory.aspx.
