Bill summary

House amendments make the following changes to 4th edition.
Amendment #1 amends GS 96-14(2) (concerning disqualification for benefits) to clarify and modify the definition and description for the term “misconduct connected with the work.” Specifies that the listed examples are prima facie evidence of misconduct, which may be rebutted by the claimant. Restores, as an example, the failure to adequately perform employment duties as shown by at least three written reprimands in the year immediately preceding termination. Makes a technical change.
Amendment #2 removes language setting out General Assembly findings related to the Governor’s Executive Orders, which extended unemployment insurance benefits.
