Become
Recently Unemployed in the state of Washington?
Then Follow The Steps
Below.
1) Staffing Agencies Routinely Reject Former Contractors' Unemployment Claims is THE first page you should read. It gives vital information regarding what you need to do to make sure your unemployment benefits aren't rejected because of challenges from your temporary contracting agency.
2) How do I apply for Unemployment Insurance Benefits? gives you all the information necessary to file a new claim in Washington State, including local numbers for your area.
3) The next page you should go to is the State of Washington Employment Security Department's: Application for Benefits Page. This page answers a number of the questions about how you may be processed through the system. If you have applied for your weekly benefits with one of the automated telecenter numbers you will have been asked the questions that are answered on this page.
4) Bridging the paycheck gap contains a check list of possible benefits you will want to print out and take to your local employment office. You can then use that list to make sure that you get the maximum amount of help in getting back on your feet.
5) Washington State Directories of Services and Locations is a main hub that links you to, and describes, many of the different, primary, services that the state provides to the unemployed. If you make it your first bookmark you will be able to reach much of what they offer.
6) Washington State Dislocated Worker Services is another page you will want to bookmark at this point. It has links to the web pages of the Washington WorkSource Centers (in your area) where you will need to go if you wish to pursue the possibility of getting any type of retraining or additional unemployment benefits beyond the normal payments. You may be able to get the state to pay for a particular computer certification class that will make you more desirable on the market. It also has links to the web pages for, and phone numbers for, Community & Technical Colleges in your area. It also has a page called, Retraining for a new job or career, which is another, more comprehensive check list page you will also wish to print out, check off, and take with you to your WorkSource Center as well.
7) Washington State Searching for Training & Employment Programs (S.T.E.P.): lets you search by a number of job or business related topics.
8) Employment Security's Washington Interactive Labor Market Access (WILMA): helps you find labor market information, such as the latest wage information on jobs in your field so that you will be prepared for salary negotiations.
9) Washington Employment Security Department home page.
