R994-309-105. Reimbursable Employer's Liability for Benefits Paid  


Latest version.
  • (1) The reimbursable employer's liability is limited to the amount of benefits paid to the claimant. The employer may also be required to pay interest, penalty, and collection costs on past due amounts.

    (2) The employer is not liable for benefits overpaid as a result of agency error or a Department decision which is later reversed unless the reversal was due in whole or in part to the failure of the reimbursable employer to provide complete and accurate information within the time limits established by the Department.

    (3) Any benefits established as an overpayment, except overpayments due to the failure of the employer to provide information as provided in subparagraph (2) above, will be deducted from the employer's liability or, at the Department's discretion, refunded as the overpayment is recovered.

    (4) If a claimant continues working part-time for a reimbursable employer and had other employment during the base period, the reimbursable employer may be eligible for relief of charges if all the requirements of Subsection R994-401-302(1) are met.
