Unemployment Claims Management
The unemployment insurance claims process requires careful management and oversight. To ensure the highest level of service and support, each employer is assigned a specific U.I.S. claims manager who is an expert in the regulations and bureaucracy associated with unemployment claims.
Your claims manager will become familiar with your business’ culture and policies, and handle the day-to-day administration of your unemployment claims program. Personal contact with the claim representative ensures you as the employer have a full understanding of the issues for each unemployment claim.
