RIN: 1205-AB31

Publication ID: Fall 2001

Title: ●Disaster Unemployment Assistance Program Amendment
Abstract: In 1995, ETA published an interim final rule that clarified and removed undue restrictions in the existing regulations implementing the Disaster Unemployment Assistance Program. This rule revised all of part 625. Its withdrawal from the current agenda reflects a postponement of additional rulemaking due to higher agency priorities. (See RIN 1205-AB02.) This new rule on the Disaster Unemployment Assistance Program will only address one aspect of part 625; it adds a definition of "unemployment is a direct result of the major disaster." ETA had not defined this term in its previous rule. The purpose of the new definition is to clarify eligibility for disaster unemployment assistance in the wake of the major disasters as a result of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.
