SUBJECT: Eligibility for Attached Unemployment

Please refer to Interpretation No. 264, Supplement 1, dated June 9, 1987.

The Employment Security Law, Section 96-8(10) limits unemployment for payroll attached individuals to instances in which an individual works or is paid “less than three customary scheduled full-time days” or 60% of the customary scheduled full-time hours. The intent of Interpretation No. 264 is to prevent an employer from using incentive or production pay in determining the number of hours “effectively” paid during a given week. However, any other wages or pay including bonus, vacation pay, holiday pay, etc., must be applied in determining whether the three days or 60% threshold has been met.

This bulletin supersedes UI Bulleting 1(85) which is now obsolete.
