Posted on Aug 25, 2021 in Capitol Connection, Featured, Main
Due to the spike in COVID-19 cases, the state Department of Labor & Industrial Relations has announced several ways the public can still talk to someone about their situation, instead of in person.
Those who have complex, disputed unemployment insurance claims can speak to an examiner to assist with fact-finding for their situation. Expanded telephone appointments for claimants with general inquiries are now available as well as for those with Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) claims and for employer services. Appointments can be made at https://labor.hawaii.gov/ui/appointments/. Nearly 1,700 weekly appointments are available.
