1 | AN ACT concerning employment.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
4 | Section 5. The Unemployment Insurance Act is amended by | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
5 | changing Section 1506.1 as follows:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
6 | (820 ILCS 405/1506.1) (from Ch. 48, par. 576.1)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Sec. 1506.1. Determination of Employer's Contribution | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
8 | Rate.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
9 | A. The contribution rate for any calendar year prior to | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
10 | 1991 of each
employer whose contribution rate is determined as | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
11 | provided in Sections 1501 through 1507, inclusive, shall be | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
12 | determined in accordance with
the provisions of this Act as | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
13 | amended and in effect on November 18, 2011.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
14 | B. (Blank).
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
15 | C. (Blank).
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
16 | D. (Blank).
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
17 | E.
The
contribution rate for calendar year 1991 and
each | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
18 | calendar year thereafter of each employer who has
incurred | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
19 | liability for the payment of contributions
within each of the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
20 | three (in the case of calendar years before 2014) or 2 (in the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
21 | case of calendar year 2014 and
each calendar year thereafter) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
22 | calendar years immediately
preceding the calendar year for | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
23 | which a rate is being
determined shall be the product obtained |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | by multiplying
the employer's benefit ratio defined by Section | ||||||
2 | 1503.1
for that calendar year by the adjusted state experience
| ||||||
3 | factor for the same year, provided that:
| ||||||
4 | 1. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, an | ||||||
5 | employer's
minimum contribution rate shall be the greater | ||||||
6 | of 0.2% or the
product obtained by multiplying 0.2% by the | ||||||
7 | adjusted state
experience factor for the applicable
| ||||||
8 | calendar year. An employer's minimum contribution rate | ||||||
9 | shall be 0.1% for
calendar year 1996. An employer's minimum | ||||||
10 | contribution rate shall be 0.0% for calendar years 2012 | ||||||
11 | through 2019.
| ||||||
12 | 2.
An
employer's maximum contribution rate shall be the | ||||||
13 | greater of 6.4% or
the product of 6.4%
and the adjusted | ||||||
14 | state experience factor for the applicable calendar year.
| ||||||
15 | 3. If any product obtained in this subsection is not
an | ||||||
16 | exact multiple of one-tenth of one percent, it shall
be | ||||||
17 | increased or reduced, as the case may be to the nearer
| ||||||
18 | multiple of one-tenth of one percent. If such product
is | ||||||
19 | equally near to two multiples of one-tenth of one percent,
| ||||||
20 | it shall be increased to the higher multiple of one-tenth
| ||||||
21 | of one percent.
| ||||||
22 | 4. Intermediate rates between such minimum and maximum
| ||||||
23 | rates shall be at one-tenth of one percent intervals.
| ||||||
24 | The contribution rate of each employer for whom wages
| ||||||
25 | became benefit wages during the applicable period specified
in | ||||||
26 | Section 1503 or for whom benefit payments became
benefit |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | charges during the applicable period specified
in Section | ||||||
2 | 1503.1, but who did not report wages for
insured work during | ||||||
3 | such period, shall be the maximum
contribution rate as | ||||||
4 | determined by paragraph 2 of this
subsection.
The
contribution | ||||||
5 | rate for each employer
for whom no wages became benefit wages | ||||||
6 | during the applicable
period specified in Section 1503 or for | ||||||
7 | whom no benefit
payments became benefit charges during the | ||||||
8 | applicable
period specified in Section 1503.1, and who did not
| ||||||
9 | report wages for insured work during such period, shall
be the | ||||||
10 | greater of 2.7% or 2.7% times the then current
adjusted state | ||||||
11 | experience factor as determined by the
Director in accordance | ||||||
12 | with the provisions of Sections
1504 and 1505.
| ||||||
13 | F. (Blank).
| ||||||
14 | G. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section, no | ||||||
15 | employer's
contribution rate with respect to calendar year 1989 | ||||||
16 | and each calendar year
thereafter shall exceed 5.4% of the | ||||||
17 | wages for insured work paid by him
during any calendar quarter, | ||||||
18 | if such wages paid during such calendar
quarter total less than | ||||||
19 | $50,000, plus any applicable penalty contribution rate | ||||||
20 | calculated pursuant to subsection C of Section 1507.1.
