DAR File No.: 42740
Filed: 03/29/2018 06:55:07 PMNOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Section 35A-1-104 authorizes the Department of Workforce Services (Department) to adopt rules. Subsection 35A-1-104(4) authorizes the Department to establish eligibility standards for its programs. Subsection 35A-4-502(1)(b) authorizes the Department to make rules necessary for the administration of the Employment Security Act. 42 U.S.C. 654 requires the State to maintain a database of newly hired or rehired employees for the purpose of ensuring that workers' child support obligations may be met via withholding of unemployment insurance benefits otherwise due to the worker. The Centralized New Hire Registry Act, Section 35A-7-101 et seq., delegates to the Department the duty to establish and maintain a centralized new hire registry database for the purpose of receiving and maintaining information on newly hired or rehired employees. This rule sets forth the Department's standards and procedures for how employers are to report information to the database.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
No written comments have been received during the last five years.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
This new hire registry is mandated by federal and state law and is used to assist in child support and detecting fraud against unemployment benefits. By knowing when individuals have returned to work, the Department can stop benefit payments and protect the trust fund. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
