Description of Program and Relief
Expedited Unemployment Claim Process for Employers
Description of Program and Relief
Employers experiencing reduced hours or closing due to COVID-19 may expedite the unemployment claim process for their employees by providing a mass layoff list or an employer-filed mass claim to the Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development.
Government or Lead Agency
Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development
Dates Available
Effective immediately.
Eligibility Requirements/Restrictions
Employers may expedite the unemployment claim process for their employees by providing a mass layoff list (preferred method if business has already closed and employer is not in contact with employees) or an employer-filed mass claim (preferred method if business has not yet closed and employer believes that the business will eventually reopen) to the Department of Labor & Workforce Development. The required forms for each filing can be found by logging into the Department of Labor & Workforce Development’s job website, which can be accessed by clicking here. If employers do not file one of these two lists, they will be required to respond to each individual employee’s claim, which can delay the benefit payment process.
