BILL NUMBER:A3703C
Title of bill
An act to repeal subdivision 11 of section 590 of the labor law, in relation to benefits based on non-professional employment with certain educational institutions
Purpose or general idea of bill
The bill would clarify the circum- stances under which unemployment benefits for non-professional employees of academic institutions may be denied.
Summary of specific provisions
The bill would repeal the section of law which allows denial of claims for non-professional employees of educa- tional institutions if there is a "reasonable assurance" that they will be hired at a later date.
Effects of present law which this hill would alter
This bill would require unemployment insurance claims by non-professional education employees to be judged on a case by case basis.
Justification
Service employees in schools and colleges, including cafeteria workers, bus drivers, and others are generally low wage work- ers. If they receive no salary during the vacation months they often experience financial hardship waiting for the school year to begin again.
