AB 938 — Relating to: various changes to the unemployment insurance law, requiring an audit to be conducted by the Legislative Audit Bureau, requiring approval by the Joint Committee on Finance of certain federally authorized unemployment benefits, and authorizing the secretary of administration to transfer employees from any executive branch agency to the Department of Workforce Development for certain purposes. (FE)

Assistance call center This bill requires DWD to operate a call center to assist claimants for UI benefits or similar federal payments.

Under the bill, if the volume of calls has increased by 300 percent or more over the same week during the previous year or if there is a declared statewide emergency that causes or relates to an increase in UI claims, DWD is required to increase the hours for the call center to include evening hours after 5 p.m.

and weekend hours.

- 2022 Legislature - 4 - LRB-4346/1 MED&EAW:cjs&cdc ASSEMBLY BILL 938 Database comparisons This bill requires DWD to perform a comparison of state and national databases that track death records, employment records, and prison records against recipients of UI benefits for the purposes of detecting fraud or erroneous payments.

The bill requires DWD to perform the comparison on at least a weekly basis.

The bill provides that DWD may also make such comparisons with other databases.

OTHER CHANGES UI benefit augmentations subject to review by Joint Committee on Finance This bill provides that whenever any UI benefit augmentation is provided for through an act of congress or by executive action of the president of the United States, the cochairpersons of the Joint Committee on Finance must be notified, in writing, of the proposed benefit augmentation.

The bill defines “benefit augmentation” to mean any action whereby the governor or any other state agency or official would encumber or expend moneys received from, or accept reimbursement from, the federal government or whereby the governor or any other state agency or official would enter into any contract or agreement with the federal government or any federal agency to 1) increase the weekly UI benefit rate payable to claimants above what is provided under state law, or 2) increase the total amount of UI benefits to which a claimant is entitled above what is provided under state law.

Under the bill, such a benefit augmentation is subject to a 14-day passive review by the Joint Committee on Finance.

In addition, the bill provides that no benefit augmentation may be effectuated unless it is subject to termination or cancellation by the Joint Committee on Finance.

Worker's compensation;

misconduct Currently, under the worker's compensation law, an employer is not liable for temporary disability benefits during an employee's healing period if the employee is suspended or terminated from employment due to misconduct, as defined under the UI law.

Under the bill, the changes to the UI law's definition of misconduct described above apply under the worker's compensation law as well.

Audit of UI fraud detection and prevention efforts This bill requires the Legislative Audit Bureau to conduct an audit of DWD's efforts to detect and prevent fraud and to recover fraud overpayments in the UI program, the federal pandemic unemployment assistance program, and the pandemic emergency unemployment compensation program.

Transfer of employees to DWD The bill authorizes the secretary of administration to temporarily transfer employees from any executive branch agency to DWD to assist in deciding UI appeals.

Under the bill, DWD must pay all salary and fringe benefit costs of that employee during the time the employee is at DWD.
