Shared Work Continued Claim
Part A - Instructions to Employee
This form is used to claim Shared Work benefits during a week(s) in which your normal hours of work were reduced according to a Shared Work Plan agreed to by your employer.
Complete Part A, “Employee Statement,” on the other side of this form. New York Unemployment Insurance benefit weeks run from Monday through Sunday. Be sure to show the Sunday week ending date(s) for the week(s) you wish to claim in the space provided at the top of the form.
If your name has changed, print your correct name and your previous name in the space provided at the top of the form.
If you have changed your address, print your new address in the space provided below your signature. Be sure to include your zip code.
Return this form to your employer, who will complete Part B and send it to the Department of Labor for processing.
Part B – Instructions to Employer
The purpose of this form is to confirm the status of employees you have listed in your Shared Work Plan.
The percent reduction is calculated by dividing the number of hours for which the employee was not paid due to work sharing by the number of hours normally worked in a week.
Shared Work benefits are not available for time that is paid for by the employer to the employee. That is, all time for which the employee receives compensation from the employer is considered “employment” for the purpose of calculating the percent reduction. This includes vacation, holiday and sick pay as well as payment for services performed.
Example: Employee’s normal schedule is 40 hours a week, 8 hours a day. Employer is shut down on Friday due to Shared Work.
a.Employee works Monday through Thursday: this is a 20% reduction.
b.Employee works Monday through Wednesday, gets paid sick leave for Thursday, is off Friday due to shutdown: this is a 20% reduction.
c.Employee works Monday through Thursday and gets holiday pay for Friday: this is a 0% reduction.
Give one form to each employee covered by your Shared Work Plan on the Monday following the latest Sunday week ending date on the reverse of the form, or as soon as possible thereafter if the employee is not working on Monday. This will be the second Monday after the date your Shared Work Plan becomes effective and every other Monday thereafter.
After the employee completes Part A and returns the form to you, complete Part B, “Employer Statement,” and send it to: NYS Department of Labor, Unemployment Insurance Division, Attention - Shared Work, PO Box 621, Albany, N.Y.
Mail the forms for all of the employees together in one envelope, if possible.
If you have a NY.GOV ID, you can send the forms by using the messaging feature after you log into your Unemployment Insurance Online Services account.
If the employee completed Part A and wishes to claim the week, submit the form for our review and determination even though you protest payment. Include a statement explaining why you protest the payment.
Review the completed form to be sure that it is correct.
Any errors or omissions will cause a delay in payment of benefits.
