Allows noncharge to employer's account for employees paid benefits through shared work program during high unemployment.

Connecticut HB05280 modifies the state's unemployment compensation law to allow a noncharge to an employer's experience account for employees who received benefits through the shared work program during periods of high unemployment. This applies to claims filed in weeks when the state is in an extended benefit period or high unemployment. The employer must notify the administrator within the time allowed for appeal. This change aims to support employers and employees during economic downturns.
