All employees who are newly hired or recalled to work must be reported. An employee is defined as “an individual in the employ of another who performs a service for hire and receives wages.” This includes temporary, seasonal and part-time employees. Individuals refusing work may also be reported, but this information is optional. Reporting job refusals will increase the labor pool, disqualify UC and/or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients if they refuse work for which they are qualified, and reduce the drain on UC Trust Fund.
