State offering webinars for Work Share program

The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity has been offering the Work Share program in order to help businesses and employees ease back into work as they reopen from the Covid-19 shutdown.

The Work Share program allows employees to get partial employment benefits if their employers are unable to offer fulltime hours during the reopening process. The Labor and Economic Opportunity Department is now offering webinars to help employers implement the program for their employees. There are four of these webinars scheduled for next week:

  • Monday, June 15 at 9 am.
  • Monday, June 15 at 1:30pm (Q&A session only).
  • Tuesday, June 16 at 1:30pm.
  • Wednesday, June 17 at 1:30 pm (Q&A session only).

For more information on the webinars and the program you can check out the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity's website.
