Description of Program and Relief
Reemployment Assistance Program
The Reemployment Assistance (RA) program provides temporary financial assistance for people who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own. Workers who become unemployed because their employer needs to temporarily shut down or isolate workers due to COVID-19 are potentially eligible to receive benefits.
Government or Lead Agency
South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation
Dates Available
Effective now, and continuing indefinitely
Eligibility Requirements/Restrictions
Eligibility is generally examined on an individual basis, but the Department of Labor and Regulation has proposed several general COVID-19 related scenarios that are eligible or likely eligible for RA benefits. These scenarios involve workers that have tested positive for COVID-19 and are temporarily unable to work, workers who are out of work because their employer closed due to COVID-19, workers who face hours reductions due to COVID-19, and workers who are sent home because an employer believes they are at risk.
