SERIES: 83643
TITLE: Quarterly benefit cost statements
DATES: 1985-2012.
ARRANGEMENT: Numerical by employer identification number

DESCRIPTION: This is a computer output data file of the actual benefit costs paid to an employer's former employee(s) during the previous quarter. It includes employee (claimant) name, social security number, percent of wages used in payment of individual benefit costs attributable to the employer, and total benefit cost to the employer for each quarter. A printed copy of this report is provided to employers for their information since this data, along with total wages paid during the previous five years, is used to compute contribution rates for those employers for the next year. For this reason, a computer data file of this information is also stored on each employer's imaging file so the information is available when an employer contacts the department regarding questions based on the benefits paid and charged to individual accounts.
