Summary
Amends provisions of the Unemployment Insurance Act providing that an employer is not chargeable for benefit charges resulting from the payment of benefits to an individual if the employer's business is closed solely because of the entrance of the employer or a partner, officer, or majority stockholder of the employer into active duty in the Illinois National Guard or the Armed Forces. Provides that those provisions apply notwithstanding any other provision of the Act, including those affecting finality of benefit charges or rates. Also provides that those provisions apply to benefit charges that result from the payment of benefits to an individual for any week of unemployment after January 1, 2003. Effective immediately.
