Emergency Rule Concerning Actively Seeking Work Eligibility Requirements

Justification

In accordance with §§ 8-72-102 and 24-4-103, Colorado Revised Statutes (C.R.S.), an emergency rule is adopted.  

The Unemployment Insurance Division is responsible for administering Part 2.6, 7 CCR 1101-2, Regulations Concerning Employment Security, which allows the Division to consider certain factors when approving a training program for individuals who are unemployed.  The immediate adoption of this rule is necessary to allow the Unemployment Insurance Division to waive any of the factors listed in Part 2.6 in order to respond to a crisis in an industry that threatens the economic stability of one or more regions in Colorado.

This emergency rule is adopted and shall be effective September 1, 2016.
