(1) The division shall compute wage credits
for each individual by crediting him with the wages for insured work paid during
each quarter of such individual's base period or twenty-six times the current
maximum benefit amount, whichever is the lesser. Any otherwise eligible individual
shall be entitled during any benefit year to a total amount of benefits equal to
twenty-six times his weekly benefit amount or one-third of his wage credits for
insured work paid during his base period, whichever is the lesser; except that
benefits based on seasonal wages may be paid only for unemployment during the
normal seasonal period of the seasonal industry in which such wage credits were
earned and only to seasonal workers who are available for work in such seasonal
industry, and the total thereof shall not exceed one-third of such individual's wages
paid for insured seasonal work during the corresponding normal seasonal period of
his base period. For the purposes of this section, wages shall be counted as wages
for insured work for benefit purposes with respect to any benefit year only if such
benefit year begins subsequent to the date on which the employing unit by whom
the wages were paid has satisfied the conditions of section 8-70-113, 8-76-104, or
8-76-107, with respect to becoming an employer.
