Establishes the "Promoting a Return to Work Act of 2025", modifying provisions relating to work search activities for unemployment compensation claimants

HB 1356, the "Promoting a Return to Work Act of 2025," requires unemployment compensation claimants to complete four work search activities each week to remain eligible for benefits starting January 1, 2026. This directly affects individuals receiving unemployment benefits, who must submit resumes, apply for jobs, attend interviews, participate in job fairs, or complete job skill training to avoid disqualification for that week. The bill mandates these specific actions as acceptable work search activities, with the Division of Employment Security responsible for administering the rules. Failure to meet the weekly requirement results in loss of benefits for that week, aligning with existing unemployment compensation procedures.
