d. 3. Administration of the work test for the State unemployment compensation system, including making eligibility assessments (for referral to UI adjudication, if needed), and providing job finding and placement services for UI claimants; and

Current Narrative:

The State administers the unemployment insurance work test as required. Claimants who appear to have failed to participate or report to suitable opportunities are notified to respond as to the reason why. Based on the result a determination will be made as to their eligibility. The UI management information system identifies potential eligibility issues by the claimant’s responses to weekly certification questions and by assessing the data entered by staff during eligibility assessments. Any job referral made is reconciled either by the claimant the employer or both. The management information system (MACC) is able to generate a follow-up form for the employer to obtain the results of any referrals.
