La. Admin. Code tit. 40 § IV-341

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 8, August 20, 2024

Section IV-341 - Regulations for Interstate Charging

A. Louisiana employers shall be charged or noncharged in cases where Louisiana transfers wages earned with Louisiana employers to another state in order that that state pay unemployment compensation benefits.

B. The Louisiana employer will be notified of their potential liability and be given 10 days to protest chargeability. Louisiana will determine if the employer should or should not be charged in accordance with §1553 of the Louisiana Employment Security Law based on information supplied by both claimant and employer. Louisiana will not determine claimant eligibility as this is done by the paying state under their Unemployment Compensation Law. If either claimant or employer disagree with the determination, appeal rights will be given in accordance with Employment Security Law.

C. If the employer fails to respond within the first 10 days or fails to follow through timely with any subsequent appeal, the last decision of the agency will stand, and the employer will have lost all subsequent appeal rights.

D. If it is determined that the employer is to be "noncharged," the benefits paid to claimant will be recouped in accordance with §1553 of the Louisiana Employment Security Law.
