Fiscal Note Summary

Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.

This proposal seeks to make certain changes in our unemployment laws. The biggest changes are to make the salaries of election officials who earn $1,000 or more reportable for unemployment tax purposes, to prevent State Unemployment Tax Act dumping, to force the revocation of contracts, licenses and permits to organizations who are default in unemployment tax payment, and to benefit requirements relating to the most recent work and corporate officer benefits. The financial impact on the agency would be minimal to develop procedures for the identification of SUTA dumping. The threat of revocation of licenses, etc... will lead to more compliance regarding payment of Unemployment Compensation taxes. Additionally, those employers now on repayment agreement will continue to stay current rather than enter into agreement solely to obtain licensure and then default on repayment. We estimate $2,000,000-$3,000,000 additional revenue. The most recent work and Corporate officer benefits could save an estimated $1,000,000-$2,000,000 in expenditures from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund.
