Relating to: various changes to the unemployment insurance law. (FE)

Employers can now report specific actions by job seekers, such as declining interviews, failing to respond to offers, or canceling scheduled interviews, which affects the claimant's eligibility for benefits.

The Department of Workforce Development must include information on employer reports of missed interviews or refusals in its annual unemployment insurance fraud report to the legislature.

New methods, including a portal and phone line, must be established for employers to report when an employee refuses an offer of work.

A claimant is no longer considered to have conducted a reasonable job search for a week if they declined, failed to respond to, or canceled a job interview without good cause or a prompt attempt to reschedule.

The state's ability to recover overpayments from individuals who made false statements to obtain benefits in the name of another person changed from discretionary to mandatory.
