An Act relative to municipal unemployment insurance reform

This bill modifies Massachusetts unemployment insurance rules to address benefits for municipal employees working in education and those receiving pension payments. It prevents unemployment benefits from being paid to municipal employees who provide services to educational institutions under the same conditions as other covered workers. Additionally, the law requires that unemployment benefits be reduced by 65 percent of any pension or retirement income received during the benefit week, but only if the employer provided at least 75 percent of the individual's total service time for that pension plan. These changes aim to align state unemployment provisions with specific employment and retirement scenarios for public sector workers.
