Unemployment Insurance Reemployment Rates


Each calendar quarter, states report on the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) 9047 report the number of UI first payments for whom intrastate or out-of-state wages are reported in the subsequent quarter.


The following charts and tables summarize UI Reemployment by several criteria. The quarter-ending date refers to the quarter in which the claimant receives a first UI payment. Data are displayed by quarter or cumulatively for four quarters, as indicated.


Data for the 2nd quarter of 2011 exclude the Virgin Islands due to reporting issues.


For individual receiving a UI first payment during the period July 2010 to June 2011, 59.6 percent were reemployed in the subsequent quarter, covering the period October 2010 to September 2011. The reemployment rate decreased from 64.4% for first payment recipients during the January to March 2011 quarter, to 61.1% for first payment recipients during the April to June 2011 quarter reflecting seasonality. The June quarter reemployment rate is an improvement for the same quarter in 2010, when the rate was 53.7%.


Reemployment for claimants who were not Exempt from work search or Employment Service registration requirements decreased by 1.27 percentage points for claimants receiving a UI first payment during the 2nd quarter of calender year 2011 ( reemployment during the July to September 2011 quarter). Reemployment for Exempt claimants decreased 1.12 percentage points.


When comparing the most recent quarter to the previous quarter, the UI reemployment rate for claimants who found jobs within the same state as the liable state for the UI claim decreased by 3.10 percentage points to 56.38 percent. The out-of-State reemployment rate increased only 0.60 percentage points to 4.76 percent.


Over 79 percent of the 2 million UI first payment recipients during the April to June 2011 quarter were required to conduct an active work search and/or register with their state Employment Service. The number of UI first payments decreased from 2.92 million during the January to March quarter to 2.13 million in the April to June quarter.
