Employer Unemployment Insurance FAQsWhat are the quali	
fications for laid off 
employees for Unemployment Insurance under 
the Governor’s Executive Order?  
This is unchanged by the executive order.  Unemployment 
Insurance is for e mployees laid off from work ; separated 
under non-disqualifying conditions. Individuals must still 
meet the standard monetary eligibility requirements. We 
highly recommend advising claimants to file online , and we 
assess eligibility at  that point in time. 
Do they still have to meet the qualifications prior 
to the Executive Order or do they automatically 
qualify no matter what the circumstances?
All claimants  must meet monetary eligibility requirements 
and be unemployed through no fault of their own. Layoffs 
because of COVID-19 pandemic are non-disqualifying. 
Waivers in Executive Order 20-04 regarding ability and 
availability to work and work search apply to all claimants 
during the duration of the Executive Order.
How long before employees will get their first 
check?  How long will they get benefits?
Due to increased claim load we are not able to give an 
estimated timeframe, but NDOL is working diligently to get 
payment as quickly as possible to eligible individuals. 
What instructions on applying for 
Unemployment Insurance should I give to my 
employees who are being laid off?
Direct them to NEworks.nebraska.gov to file an 
unemployment claim. There are also step-by-step 
instructions on how to file a claim at dol.nebraska.gov/
uibenefits.  If they do not have a computer, they can use 
the NEworks mobile app to file claims.
Do part-time employees qualify?
Part-time employees are welcome to apply. Claims filed 
are handled on a case by case basis. Equal Opportunity Program/Employer   TDD: 800.833.7352
Auxiliary aids and services are available  
upon request to individuals with disabilities.
Revised 3/
20/2020 How long do they need to have been employed in 
order to qualify?
There is no timeframe, if you are unsure if you qualify, go to 
NEworks.nebraska.gov and file. 
Since some individuals are simply having hours 
reduced and not eliminated, what is the litmus test 
for whether they qualify or not?
If you are unsure if you qualify, go to NEworks.nebraska.gov 
and file. If an employer is reducing hours we recommend you 
consider Short-Time Compensation. Information about the 
STC program is available at https:
/	
/dol.nebraska.gov/STC
What documentation will suffice to prove a drastic 
cut in hours? 
Employers simply need to reply to the Department as 
information is r equested. The Department will reach out via 
phone and in writing.
What percentage of their paycheck would  
they be eligible for and for how long would they 
be eligible?  
This is determined on a case-by-case basis. Generally speaking, 
a claimant will receive ½ of their av
erage weekly salary. The 
maximum weekly benefit amount in Nebraska is $440.
Do they still have to meet the requirement 
of looking for other jobs since they’d still be 
employed with us?
No, this requirement is waived for claimants from March 22nd 
through May 2nd 2020. 
I	
f wages cut significantly but not c o	mpletely, are 
employees eligible for unemployment	
 b en	efits? 
(examples on separate page)
Potentially. Employees should go to NEworks. nebraska.gov 
and file. If an employer is reducing hours  we recommend you 
consider Short-Time Compensation. Information about the 
STC program is available at  https://dol.nebraska.gov/STC.
