How the Trust works
Your organization makes quarterly contributions to your Individual Trust Account. In your first year of participation, the contribution rate is 50% of your state assigned rate. The second year, your rate equals your state rate - but just for this one year, to help establish a solid reserve in your account. In future years, your contribution rate is determined actuarially, meaning that your rate is set according to your actual claims versus contributions. The Trust allows you to eliminate the State dictated subsidies (for high turnover employers) from your contribution rate. Your employees will experience no difference in the amount or manner of receiving their unemployment benefits.
