Section 12:17-22.5 - Payment of family leave insurance benefits during unemployment for individuals working for exempt employers

(a) This section provides that weeks and wages earned by an individual employed by an out-of-State employer or by the Federal government, shall be excluded from benefit calculations under the Family Leave Insurance Benefits During Unemployment Program.

(b) Where a claimant's most recent employing unit was not a covered employer, family leave insurance benefits during unemployment shall be paid to the individual under 43:21-4(f)(2), provided the claimant has sufficient weeks and wages as a covered individual during the base year to establish a valid claim and is otherwise eligible.

(c) A claim for family leave insurance benefits during unemployment, which was previously established as a valid unemployment claim based wholly or in part on wages from employment that is not with a covered employer shall be redetermined. Eligibility for family leave insurance benefits during unemployment shall be based solely on wages earned as a covered individual during the base year to establish a valid claim for benefits.
