Current Narrative:
When filing for UI benefits, claimants are advised that they must keep a work search log for every week claimed showing at least three work search activities. Appropriate WorkOne staff review the claimants work search efforts (documented by the claimants job search logs) to determine whether or not a suitable job search effort iis being made by the claimant. Claimants not participating in RESEA or JFH requirements, along with claimants not meeting UI eligibility criteria, are referred to UI adjudication staff for a determination of benefit eligibility. Staff provide guidance through WP and WIOA case managers to assist claimants to pursue employment goals. All of these efforts are outlined in the new RESEA DWD issued Policy 2017-12 Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessmenton January 31, 2018.
