Unemployment Insurance--Free Workshop!

Facilitator: Robin Quon
Location: UEA Building - 906 NE 19th Avenue, Portland, OR
Cost: FREE to UEA members
 

Most employers will pay the state $2.00—$5.00 for every dollar paid out to a former employee whose claim is charged back to their account. Managing every claim—and avoiding those that are unwarranted—is essential!

Unemployment is the only tax an employer can substantially control by how it handles employee separations and claims management. In 2010, Oregon employers will pay between $578 and $1,733 in unemployment tax per employee. In Washington, employers will pay between $349 and $2,208 per employee. The amount depends on how claims are managed and controlled.

This FREE workshop will give you the tools to better understand and manage unemployment claims and unemployment insurance tax rates:

• Understanding the rules and basis for tax rates
• Winning disputed claims
• Removing nonchargeable claims
• Avoiding and controlling claims
• Understanding workshare programs and their impact on tax rates
• Reducing tax rates and taxes paid

Each workshop participant will receive a FREE audit of their most recent unemployment tax notice, so bring yours!
