MICHIGAN– Registration and Seeking Work Waivers Available for Temporary Shutdowns
- If you are a Michigan employer who will have a temporary shutdown, did you know that you can request a Request Seeking Work Waiver (RSW) that exempts your employees from having to register for work and actively seeking another position during the duration of the shutdown. To qualify for an RSW waiver the separations must be for a lack of work, MI UIA must be notified 14 days in advance, and work is expected to resume within 45 calendar days of the last day worked. These waivers can be completed online using your Michigan Web Account Manager (MiWAM). Look for the Benefit Services section under the Account Services tab and click on Request Seeking Work Waiver.
