Section R. 421.204 - Unemployment compensation notice to employeeRule 204.
(1) An employer, other than an employer filing claims on behalf of workers in accordance with Rule r 421.210, shall provide each worker at the time of the worker's separation from employment a copy of form UA 1711, unemployment compensation notice to employee. However, this requirement is satisfied if the employer previously delivered a copy of the form to the worker, or if the employer has by any other method provided the worker an equivalent written statement notifying the worker of both of the following: (a) If the worker loses form UA 1711 or the equivalent written notice from the employer, the worker may obtain a duplicate from a designated office in the establishment.(b) The worker should have form UA 1711 or the equivalent written notice from the employer available for reference when filing a claim.(2) If the agency finds that an employer fails to deliver form UA 1711 or the equivalent written notice before separation or fails to post adequate notices concerning replacement of a lost form UA 1711 or an equivalent written notice, then the employer, at the direction of the agency, shall be required to deliver form UA 1711 or the equivalent written notice to a worker when the worker is separated from employment. Form UA 1711 or the equivalent written notice shall be considered a report within the meaning of section 54(c)(1) of the act, and the agency may impose the penalty of $10.00 against an employer that fails to provide the form or the equivalent written notice to the worker by the date of the worker's separation from employment and will only be imposed if an employer fails to comply with this requirement after being notified by the agency. Imposition of the penalty provided under this rule is an appealable issue under the act.(3) The form or equivalent written notice shall contain all of the following information: (a) The employer's name and number of the employer's account with the agency.(b) The address of the employer to which any request for wage or separation information, or both, shall be directed.(c) Such other information as is required by the agency.Mich.
