Introduced Text

Pennsylvania HB145 amends unemployment compensation rules to clarify ineligibility for benefits.

Pennsylvania HB145 amends the Unemployment Compensation Law to specify conditions under which an employee is ineligible for unemployment benefits. It clarifies that employees are ineligible if their unemployment results from voluntarily leaving work without a compelling reason, participating in a labor dispute, or being laid off under a labor-management agreement. The bill also ensures that employees are not disqualified for leaving work to accompany a relocating spouse in the military. The changes take effect immediately upon enactment.
