(a) An extended benefit period begins with the third week
following a week in which there is a state "on" indicator and
ends with the third week after the first week in which there is
a state "off" indicator or the thirteenth consecutive week of
the extended benefit period, whichever occurs later. An extended
benefit period may not begin until the fourteenth week following
the end of a prior extended benefit period.
(b) A state "on" indicator for a week exists if the
insured unemployment rate under this act for that week and the
preceding twelve (12) weeks is equal to or greater than one
hundred twenty percent (120%) of the average rates for the
corresponding thirteen (13) week period ending in each of the
preceding two (2) calendar years and is equal to or greater than
five percent (5%). A state "off" indicator for a week exists if
either of the conditions for the existence of a state "on"
indicator is not satisfied for that week and the preceding
twelve (12) weeks. The insured unemployment rate under this
subsection is the average weekly number of individuals filing
unemployment claims for regular compensation in this state for
the most recent thirteen (13) consecutive week period divided by
the average monthly employment covered under this act for the
first four (4) of the most recent six (6) completed calendar
quarters ending before the end of the thirteen (13) week period.
Computations required for the insured unemployment rate shall be
made by the department in accordance with regulations of the
United States secretary of labor.
(c) The department shall provide prior public notice of
the beginning and the end of an extended benefit period within
this state.
