An Act updating DUA notice procedures

This bill updates the rules for the Massachusetts unemployment insurance program to ensure employers receive timely notice of upcoming public hearings. It requires the department to hold at least one public hearing each quarter and mandates that notices be posted online and sent electronically to a specific list of business organizations and all employers with department accounts at least 20 days in advance. Additionally, the law is amended to guarantee that individuals seeking unemployment benefits have the opportunity for direct interaction with division staff. These changes aim to improve communication and participation in the administration of the state's unemployment assistance system.
