Career Source Gulf Coast hosts Florida DEO’s Unemployment Insurance Town Hall  June 8 and 9 in Panama City

DEO is hosting informational town hall meetings to introduce Connect and SIDES E-Response.

SIDES (State Information Data Exchange System) is a nationally recognized program that allows employers from across the country to respond to state unemployment insurance (UI) requests for information. This electronic tool provides an easier and more streamlined method to submit responses for separation information and earnings verifications. 

Connect’s Employer Portal is Florida’s easy-to-use claims management system that allows employers to manage and respond to correspondence related to the Reemployment Assistance Program, view and protest charges against your employer account, and file appeals to any adverse determinations made against your employer account.

Town hall meetings are scheduled to begin mid to late May 2015. The town hall meetings will provide information on how SIDES and Connect can benefit you as an employer and also how to sign up for SIDES E-Response. How can Connect and SIDES E-Response benefit your business?
