[Joint Press Conference]

The Unemployment Insurance Help Team has summarized the contents of the May 20 joint press conference between Governor Ige and UI Director Anne, excerpting important parts （ ① through ⑦ ）.

① Job Search reporting begins with weekly filing ending June 5

② Job Search reporting rule for weekly filing is that if you report the same appliers in the following week as you reported in the previous week, you will be counted in 3 Not counted as one of the Job Search

③ Only those who are totally unemployed （ Laidoff ） are eligible for Job Search. Those who are Temporary Layoff （ Furlough ）, Short-Term （ Partial Claims ）, in a Union with job placement assistance, or in the PUA program are not eligible for Job Search.
↑
sunset comment:
Part-time furloughs and shortened hours （ Part-total Claims ） are also Job Search eligible, as reconfirmed later.

④ Job Search includes "registering with Hirenet", "researching jobs", "submitting a resume", and "getting an interview"
↑
sunset comment:
In short. I think the nuance is that if you are able to go through the above steps and complete the three job search activities and submit a report, you are OK. The information provided in #227 and #228 of the "PEUC September Extension Program （ Third PEUC ）" topic is also very helpful. Also, please register immediately as it is very likely that the UI office will check to see if you are registered with Hirenet.

⑤ Failure to show up for an interview with a company will disqualify you from unemployment insurance, and the UI Office will use the Job Search activity reports submitted by unemployment insurance recipients to investigate each company
↑
sunset comment:
According to the Unemployment Insurance Help Team, there used to be a number of unemployment insurance recipients who engaged in this type of intentional behavior. The UI office is also following up on the filing impersonation illegal activity every week, so be sure to go to the interview if you are called for one, as they are sure to do additional investigation this time as well.

⑥ New website with updated information for employers and unemployment insurers
↓
sunset comment:
Job Search home page.

⑦ "RESEA" and "Quality Control Assessment" will be included as part of Job Search prerequisites
↑
sunset comment:
UI office will be in the process of responding to those called in. According to the Job Search website, you are supposed to submit your Job Search Activity Report when you are called. Please read through #789 and #965 in the "PEUC Unemployment Insurance 13-Week Extension Program" Topic.

That's all for now, but I think it is quite difficult to make a Job Search activity report on a small island like Hawaii, where English-speaking jobs are predominant.

However, hotels, bus companies, and tour companies that are reopening to mainland tourists must be looking ahead to the eventual return of Japanese tourists. Even if at first glance, the job does not call for Japanese staff, if you can show that you can speak Japanese, you may be able to catch their attention in the resumes of the flood of English-speaking applicants.

Some employers abuse their authority, so please read #216 of "PEUC September Extension Program （ 3rd PEUC ） Topic" carefully and be careful not to get involved.

For those who are not confident in writing Job Search activity reports, we strongly recommend that you do not worry alone but exchange information with your former colleagues and help each other.

I have reconfirmed the difference in status, which was shared with me by a loco who looked into this issue.

Please compare with your own situation.

① Laidoff （ Job Search needed ）
● Full time job totally unemployed due to corona
● Part time job totally unemployed due to corona

② Furlough （ No Job Search Required ）
● Temporarily laid off from full time job due to Corona

③ Partial Claims （ No Job Search Required ）
● Full-time job being shortened due to Corona

④ Part-total Claims （ Job Search required ）
● Part-time job being shortened due to Corona
● Part-time job with shortened hours due to corona

⑤ Full-time job or part-time job with corona, totally unemployed and working part-time for another company, Job Search is required.

Added
If you are suddenly asked to submit a "Job Search Activity Report" while you are filing weekly as if you were doing a Job Search, even though you are not doing a Job Search, it is a false declaration. If you are suddenly asked to submit a Job Search activity report while you are filing weekly reports as if you are engaged in Job Search activities, it is a false declaration.

As I shared in another Topic, at the joint press conference of Governor Ige and Anne, she stated that she would "follow up with each company based on the Job Search activity report. We do not know what kind of penalty the UI office, which is very strict about illegal impersonation and non-transparent labor income reporting, will impose, so please be careful.

At this time, Hirenet has very few job openings for Japanese language staff, but there may be more when the tourism industry for Japanese people is expected to resume.

The best thing to do is to get a job in the type of industry you are interested in or to make the most of your career, so it would not be a bad idea to check the websites of the companies you are interested in and see if there are any job postings or to contact the HR of those companies. I am sure you will be able to find a job that you are interested in.

Part-Time]

With the current narrow range of job opportunities in the small island of Hawaii, it may become mentally and financially difficult for the individual if he/she struggles to prepare Job Search activity reports while sticking to unemployment insurance.

The view has been expressed that after September, the break in the PEUC program, unemployment insurance payments will be lower anyway.

Also, the timing of Japanese tourists returning to Hawaii may depend on Japanese airport rules as to when the 2-week self-quarantine will be lifted （ There are still emergency declarations in many prefectures... ） . It is not impossible that the Olympics and Paralympics could cause another spike in corona infections. As some of you may have seen on the news, the US federal government has finally issued a travel advisory for Japan.

This means that it may be some time before Japanese tourism in Hawaii resumes in earnest.

With the unemployment insurance rules showing signs of tightening, this is a suggestion, but giving up unemployment insurance and switching to part-time work may be an option. And I feel that it would be easier to find a full time job when the Japanese tourists come back. I suggest you check out the Vivinavi Job Search Board as there seem to be a lot of part time jobs listed there now. You can tell everything about a company by the atmosphere among its employees, so please observe the atmosphere of the workplace carefully. Just in case there are some folks out there who may not know. Applications for general health insurance are accepted from mid-October to early December each year, and you cannot apply at any other time. You can only apply anytime after you start working for an employer that offers health insurance benefits. Those who are planning to work only part time for a while are encouraged to apply for general health insurance this fall or to look for a part time job with health insurance benefits.

The unemployment insurance help team is most concerned about the Job Search activities that will begin while the tourism industry that supported Hawaii's economy has yet to resume in earnest, as the employer side will have overwhelming power. I am equally concerned and feel that there will be more employment-related problems in the future.

The UI Office has been encouraging companies for the past year to report those who have turned down offer letters or refused to show up for work.

Job Search activities should only select and apply for jobs that interest you. If you apply for a job randomly without much interest and reject the offer letter without reason, you will lose all eligibility for unemployment insurance if the employer reports to the UI office that you have rejected the offer letter. Please read the rules in the handbook for more information.

Some employers abuse their authority by issuing offer letters that are lower than the terms in the job posting. If the person refuses to accept the terms and conditions in the offer letter and the employer reports the rejection of the offer letter to the UI office, it is unfair to the person. To avoid getting involved with some such employers, we recommend that you keep the following in evidence.
↓
● Print out the terms and conditions in the job posting
● Record the full name and position of the interviewer
● Record audio data during interviews and phone calls
● Save offer letters and emails

The above are important persuasive material that you can later submit to the UI Office to regain your unemployment insurance eligibility. In several past cases, the UI Office Examiner has accepted the evidence and withdrawn the unemployment insurance disqualification.

Also, with this evidence, the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii, which has pro bono attorneys, can assist you and report your employer to the Department of Labor.

Thanks for the detailed summary about Job Search.

It certainly seems difficult to find a full time position right now.
Wouldn't giving up full time and looking for part time, as described in #8, apply to

Would they not be eligible to switch from UI to PUA ？?

triple B,

I also noticed this statement on the PUA website the other day, which I have not read in a while, and have been wondering what the interpretation is.

It's just my personal opinion, but if people who have lost their full time jobs entirely due to the Corona effect are allowed to engage in part-time job search for the purpose of switching to PUA, there will be a flood of people switching to PUA, including locals, so perhaps the UI office and PUA offices would probably not allow it.

However, it may be possible that those who have lost their part time jobs entirely due to the Corona impact and continue to look for part time work may be allowed to switch PUAs. But it is also uncertain if it is possible.

You could ask the PUA contact at the call center.

Mr. SUNSET,
I see, I would be inundated with requests to switch ！

I hear that companies would rather hire two part-timers than hire one full-timer.
Now that the Japanese tourists are not returning, it seems to be tough to find a full time position in the type of work they want.
I will ask the PUA call center.
Thank you.

triple B,
To all part-timers receiving UI,

I have since confirmed with the unemployment insurance help team member who specializes in PUA, so I am sharing this with you as soon as possible.

[Regarding triple B's #12 question]
↓
Unfortunately, it is not possible to switch to PUA.

The reason is that the timing of the very first application for unemployment insurance, i.e., 18 months of past earnings retroactively from the time the first Initial Application was submitted, determines whether you are eligible for UI or PUA.

The PUA is a Corona Prevention Program to accept people who were denied UI because they were unable to calculate their WBA based on past income. In other words, if they are receiving UI, they are able to calculate their WBA, and it is not possible for them to switch to PUA in the middle of the process at their own will.

Therefore, it is impossible to switch to PUA as long as the person is receiving UI, regardless of the respective statuses "Full-time job fully unemployed", "Part-time fully unemployed", "Part-time temporarily laid off", or "Part-time shortened".

Indeed, in past cases, all those who were unable to calculate WBA in the Base Period or Alternative Period were denied UI and moved to PUA. The wording in the example "are seeking part-time employment" is interpreted to mean that these people are seeking part-time work.

He said that if the call center staff were skilled people, they would explain the difference between UI and PUA in past earnings. If skilled staff responds, please double check.

As an aside, the "UI → PUA" switch for parents with children under high school age who are in Stay Home due to school closures or online classes is a "special exception" to protect many parents and children from corona effects, regardless of past income.

Dear employers reading this topic,
In the restaurant industry, where staffing shortages are becoming more and more serious, some companies like StripSteak Waikiki are doing their best by promising to pay bonuses along with hiring. We hope you will refer to this case study as an example of how to solve the problem of human resource shortages.

To those who are thinking of changing jobs in the restaurant industry,
StripSteak Waikiki's website has a Japanese menu, so there is a possibility that they are looking for Japanese staff. I suggest you contact HR to see what kind of positions they have available. They are having a Job Fair next Tuesday and Wednesday.

I have been job searching since I lost my job in Corona, but I am having a very difficult time finding a job that is equivalent to my previous income when I look at job openings.
Also, my current unemployment insurance benefits are less than my previous income, and even if I look for jobs with this minimum amount of unemployment insurance benefits, it is difficult to find such conditions.
Of course, there may be jobs available regardless of the type of work, but I would like a job where I can make use of my experience.
I have a feeling that there are quite a few people in this situation, but what about you? ？

I often hear employers complain that they cannot attract workers because of unemployment insurance. I have some doubts about the conditions of employment, benefits, etc.
Some employers seem to think that unemployment insurance is generous, but I myself have less unemployment insurance than I used to earn, and I would like to get back to work as soon as possible.
I don't feel that there is a difference in perception between these employers and the unemployed.

The people who will suffer the most are the unemployment insurance recipients who live on the islands .

We strongly recommend that you contact the Governor Ige, the Hawaii Tourism Authority, your local legislator, or the local media.

Thank you for sharing your opinion.

The Unemployment Insurance Help Team and I are more than aware of how heavy handed the Hawaii government is.

The only thing I can say so far is that nothing can be done without first telling them what is going on. For example, we started accepting parents who were unemployed because they could not keep their children at home alone, and who were rejected for UI because they refused to come to work, at the PUA.

I am very sorry, but I do not intend to discuss politics here.

Urgent Share]

I have reconfirmed with the Unemployment Insurance Help Team
and am sharing this as soon as possible.

Even if you submit a Resume to a company and are not invited for an interview by that company, it will be counted as "one of the 3 Job Search".

After all, the above seems to be the same as the pre-Corona unemployment insurance rules.

It seems that the Job Search activity form needs to include not only the "result" but also the "name of the contact person at the company". I think it is possible to complete the Job Search activity form.

If it is a good company, they should be able to tell you the results if you contact them within a week or two after you submit your Resume.

Of course, at this time there are only a handful of Japanese staff positions available in Hawaii on this web page. However, if a hotel has many openings for various positions, it means that they are planning to reopen in earnest in the near future, so you may want to inquire with the hotel HR yourself to see if there are any Japanese staff positions that have not yet been made available to the public.

In the hotel industry in Hawaii, I think that being able to speak Japanese is an appeal that will leave a lasting impression.

[Beware of ABC Store Jobs ！ ]

This is a notice to UI and PUAs.

The Unemployment Insurance Help Team has asked us to share this with the Japanese Unemployment Insurance community as this is a warning that should not be overlooked.

Loco unemployment insurance recipients who applied for one position at ABC Store Jobs were unsuccessful for that position.

They were then offered other positions by ABC Store, asking "What about other positions ？?"

When he declined the offered position because he had no experience or career experience, the ABC Store reported to the UI office or PUA office that he had rejected the offer, and he lost his unemployment insurance eligibility.

There is now a surge of unreasonable cases regarding ABC Store jobs.

If you are applying for an ABC Store position, we strongly recommend that you stay ahead of the curve by adding a statement that you are only applying for this position and if you are unsuccessful, you do not need information about other positions.

If you are involved in a similar unreasonable case and have other companies to watch out for, please share them on this topic or email me directly.

As I warned in #11 of this Topic, leave evidence anyway.

After receiving additional guidance from the U.S. Department of Labor, the DLIR announced it will start requiring Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) claimants to make three job contacts beginning the week of June 13, 2021. The requirement applies to all PUA claimants who will need to report the contacts in the PUA portal. You must conduct work search activities for each week that you are unemployed such as submitting resumes, contacting employers, checking resources at employment offices, checking job listings in Hirenet Hawaii (the internet based job matching system of the Workforce Development Division), attending job fairs or employment workshops, etc.

The new requirement also includes those not traditionally covered under the unemployment insurance program, like the self-employed and independent contractors. If you are collecting PUA due to the loss of self-employment you must actively seek to resume your self-employment. Examples may include, but are not limited to, advertising your business, bidding on jobs, contacting potential clients, seeking assistance from the Hawaii Small Business Development Center or the U.S Small Business Administration.

You must keep a record of all your work search contacts and submit it when requested by the Department. If you do not make at least three work search contacts each week as required, you may be considered not available for work and therefore denied benefits.

Mana, it has been a while.

It may be possible that the guidance from the UI office is not being communicated well to the various companies. I hear that people who are involved in unreasonable companies are running to Legal Aid, so I hope that this will be the start of an improvement.

"I registered my resume and other information with Hirenet Hawaii. "I have registered my resume and other information with Hirenet Hawaii, but sometimes I can't send my resume properly, so I send it exclusively from linked sites such as "indeed". I also wonder how the UI checks if I send my resume from a private company that is not linked (such as from this Vivinavi Hawaii) ？ ？ ？"

Job shared in #2 of this Topic From reading the Search homepage, it seems that when you are selected for "Quality Control" or "RESEA", you submit a Job Search activity form, and the UI office uses the form as a basis to contact each company for follow-up investigation. In other words, it is important to fill in the name of the person in charge and contact information of the company to which you applied. If it is left blank, it may not be counted as one of the "3 Job Search".

For your reference, here is an excerpt from the Job Search home page. The "Written log" is the Job Search activity form.

Will I be asked to provide my written log of job search contacts to receive benefits ？

Yes. You will be asked to provide your written log of job search contacts if your claim is selected for a Quality Control review or if you are selected to participate in the Failure to provide your written log of job search contacts will result in a pending

About RESEA:

By the way, "Quality Control" and "RESEA" are chosen suddenly without prior notice. I have the impression that the probability of being selected is increasing now that it is the Job Search season.

I have a question from a friend who is receiving unemployment insurance through the PUA. She is receiving unemployment insurance through the PUA because she applied to UI and did not qualify, and she is self-employed and knows that she is eligible for the three appraisals starting next week, but she is concerned that if she had any income from her original self-employment during this job search, she would not be required to apply for the three separate appraisals. I'm having a hard time understanding why I need 3 appraisals even if I have a little less than my original income. The reason for this is that I have been advised that those who have even a little less than their original income should not be required to apply for 3 applications, and those who are PUAs are required to apply for 3 applications regardless of their income. The person who gave me this advice was not a PUA unemployment insurance recipient like me, so it was not accurate. I'm stuck because there are no PUA recipients around her. I am wondering if anyone knows anything about this ？ PUA 3-application process ？.

Dear PUAs,

Many of you may have questions about the detailed rules for PUAs only, as they have not been updated on the Job Search website. I am not sure if it will be updated in the future or if it means "please take it as the same rules as the UI".

Unlike UI unemployment insurance, which existed before Corona, PUA unemployment insurance is a newly started program to address Corona. This means that there are far fewer people who will be able to write actual advice regarding Job Search until after the weekly filing begins.

I think you would get more accurate information by double-checking with the PUA counseling service here.

【PUAのJob Search正式発表】

6月4日付のイゲ州知事の正式発表文を以下、貼ります。

HONOLULU — The state Department of Labor & Industrial Relations (DLIR) today announced it will start requiring Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) claimants to make three job contacts beginning the week of June 13, 2021. The requirement applies to all PUA claimants who will need to report the contacts in the PUA portal.

“Thousands of Hawaii claimants lost their livelihood during the pandemic through no fault of their own. Now it is our goal to get them back to work,” said DLIR Director Anne Perreira-Eustaquio. “With vaccines more widely available and the economy recovering, we want people to redouble their efforts to earn a living and aid in our state’s economic recovery.”

The work search requirement for PUA benefits was previously waived due to the pandemic. The new requirement includes those not traditionally covered under the unemployment insurance program, like the self-employed and independent contractors, as well as those ineligible for regular unemployment compensation due to COVID-19 issues such as serving as the primary caretaker of a child that is unable to attend school or for a person whose childcare facility closed as a direct result of COVID-19.

PUA claimants will need to begin reporting the three job contacts on June 20, 2021. Examples of PUA work search could include, but are not limited to: advertising your business, creating a profile on freelance websites, promoting and marketing your business, or meeting with an organization assisting businesses such as the Hawaii Small Business Development Center or the U.S. Small Business Administration.

If an individual was previously self-employed but has no plans to return to self-employment or if they are ineligible for regular UI benefits but eligible for PUA due to COVID-19, then they will be required to do a work search or work search related activity in the same way regular unemployment insurance claimants do so.

Claimants can find helpful Q&As at:

Call Center Notes]

In some cases, when we ask the call center a question that we cannot find the answer to on the Job Search home page, we are told that the call center will say, "I don't know.

Staff who are not afraid to say such things are considered to have insufficient training or zero customer service experience.

If you are told "I don't know," it is strongly recommended that you do not back down, but rather press on, "Please ask the Examiner now" or "Please connect me with the Examiner.

Unlike call center staff, Examiners have all the authority and knowledge and experience of unemployment insurance and can answer accurately.

For PUAs with various backgrounds, the Unemployment Insurance Help Team has compiled a separate summary for you to share （ ① to ④ ）

① Sole proprietors who are back in business Owners
↓
As a form of proof that you have resumed business, you must do one of the following and report it （ A to D ）
（ A ） Advertising your business
（ B ） Creating a profile on freelance websites
（ C ） Promoting and marketing your business
（ D ） Meeting with an organization assisting businesses such as the Hawaii Small Business Development Center or the U.S. Small Business Administration.

*Some of you may have questions or concerns about how to report or （ A ） to （ D ）. However, at this time the Job Search homepage is not updated in detail, and there are no real-world examples to share because the weekly Job Search filing has not yet begun. If you have any questions or doubts, please ask the PUA consultation service at the call center or use this topic to help each other out.

② Sole proprietors who plan to reopen their businesses in the near future and former sole proprietors who have closed their businesses completely
↓
Hirenet registration and 3 Job Search activities are required

③ Employees who were denied UI and transferred to PUA due to failure to calculate WBA
↓
Must register with Hirenet and complete 3 Job Search activities

④ For employees with children in temporary school closures or online classes
↓
Need to register for Hirenet and do 3 Job Search activities

*If the pattern is the same as previous years, parents will be able to register for Hirenet and do 3 Job Search activities at the start of the school summer vacation season. It is thought that the start of the school summer vacation season has made parents eligible for the Job Search.

Seems like the same thing is happening in Farlow.
It seems that some people in Farlow at the same company are getting job search questions and some are not. A previous post here
said that even if you are a Farlow, you may be on layoff status at UI. For some people, the job search question has been out since last April.
I know someone from another company who was laid off, but he said he had already received a job search check from UI by phone. It seems to me that anyone who gets questions should keep proper

Last spring, right after the Corona lockdown, many people made the mistake of choosing the wrong status when they applied for unemployment insurance for the first time, because there were many status words such as "Layoff" and "Furlough" that even locals were unfamiliar with. Many people made the mistake of choosing the wrong status when they applied for unemployment insurance for the first time. Many were unaware that they had made a mistake.

Also, the UI system at that time was an older version （ in the 1980s... ） There was also a system error that caused three questions to appear during the job search waiver season, even though the person had selected the correct status.

However, it is not possible to find out which is your status in your UI account. So please refer to the following actions in relation to your situation （ ① to ③ ）.

① Full-time job is Furlough （ Temporary layoff ） or Partial Claims （ Shortened hours ） but every week filing shows 3 questions
↑
This is a mistake as they are not originally displayed. Please contact the call center first and double check if this is due to Glitch （ UI office side system error ） Glitch will correct it to the correct status.

If it is not a Glitch, and you have mistaken the status, please take the following steps.

This is a mistake as they should. Please contact the call center first and double check if this is due to a Glitch （ UI office side system error ） Glitch will correct it to the correct status.

If it is not a Glitch and you made a mistake in selecting the wrong status, you will need to change your status and apply for Reactivate a Claim. Please be aware that if you do not change your status and do not conduct a job search, you will likely be penalized by the UI office.

③ Part-time job is Layoff （ Full Layoff ）, Furlough （ Temporary Layoff ）, or Part-total Claims （ Shorter Hours ） but weekly Filing does not show 3 questions

This is a mistake as they should show up. Please check with the call center first to see if this is due to a Glitch （ system error ） on the UI office side, and if it is Glitch, they will fix it.

If it is not a Glitch and you made a mistake in selecting the wrong status, you will need to change your status and apply for a job with Reactivate a Claim. Please be aware that if you do not change your status and do not conduct a job search, you will likely be penalized by the UI office.

We know that some of you may find part-time, on-call, or fixed-term jobs during your Job Search, so here are the steps （ ① through ④ ）.

① Add new employer information in weekly filing by the deadline for the week of the first day you worked
*For example, if you first worked on June 22 （ Wed ）, you would file on June 27 （ Sun ） to July 3 （ Complete weekly filing submissions between Sat and Sat ）
↓
② Update new employer information by filing a Reactivate a Claim the day after you submit your weekly filing when you add employer information
*Select "Add Employer to Claim"
*In the Enter the last date worked for this employer section, enter the date you last worked. For example, if you worked yesterday, you can enter yesterday's date
*In the night time, Reactivate a Claim application is not accepted, and Alert will be displayed.
↓
③ Try opening the weekly filing halfway through and see if new employer information is set to appear automatically
↓
④ If it appears automatically, add employer information Update complete.
*If it does not appear, email the following （ A ） to （ D ） to the Language Access office along with your name, last 4 digits of your social security number, address, phone number, and email address and submit to the next

（ A ） New Employer: full name of employer
（ B ） Address: address of employer
（ C ） Started Work Date: First day of work
（ D ） Status: Employment Status （ e.g. Part-Time, On-Call ）

The above is all that is needed to update the employer information. Please be patient as it seems to take a couple of weeks or more for the UI office to approve and deposit the filing each week after the additional updates are made.

If you find a full time job, simply stop filing weekly. No other procedures are required.

It is easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of job search activities at a time when unemployment insurance may end in September, making it difficult to make calm decisions, so we share some points to keep in mind just in case.

During the job search process, we often hear things like, "The job description was different from what I was told before I joined the company," "There was no compliance," "The company was a one-man operation," or "The salary was lower than what was written in the job description. Even if the company looks good from the outside, you cannot know the real situation until you actually join the company. The quality of the work environment is not always in proportion to the company's sales or name recognition.

Larger companies are usually safe because they are in compliance （ but companies with labor unions are even more secure ） and you should be cautious about smaller companies.

Before submitting your resume, seek out as many outsiders who know the company well and gather reviews before making a final decision. The small island of Hawaii is a small society, so if you want to find people who know the company well, you will find them.

Be especially wary of companies that have too many people quitting or being fired because they are employers that are not good at developing talent.

Indeed also has realistic evaluations of companies by former employees, which can be very helpful.
