SIDES (State Information Data Exchange System) is a nationally recognized program that allows employers from across the country to respond to state unemployment insurance (UI) requests for information. This electronic tool provides an easier and more streamlined method to submit responses for separation information and earnings verifications.
Town hall meetings are scheduled to begin mid to late May 2015. The town hall meetings will provide information on how SIDES and Connect can benefit you as an employer and also how to sign up for SIDES E-Response. How can Connect and SIDES E-Response benefit your business?
