Employment security: administration; unemployment insurance agency procedures to electronically access certain departments' databases; require. Amends 1936 (Ex Sess) PA 1 (MCL 421.1 - 421.75) by adding sec. 32e.

Michigan House Bill 6316 requires the state unemployment insurance agency to electronically access databases from various state and federal departments, including health, corrections, and social security agencies. The bill mandates that agency representatives verify a claimant's job status, incarceration status, death records, identity, and income before issuing benefits and at regular intervals while benefits are active. To protect sensitive information, the legislation requires the implementation of strict data security measures such as encryption and access logging. Additionally, the agency must submit an annual report to legislative appropriations committees detailing detected fraud, estimated cost savings, and any challenges encountered during the implementation process.
