Why did the Minnesota UI Program move to mandatory electronic wage reporting?
As part of a broader effort to make government more efficient for the benefit of taxpayers and, in this case, employers, the UI Program developed an Employer Self-Service System. In line with this effort, there are two options for filing UI wage reports: An online interface, and an automated telephone system. We did this because electronic transactions are more cost efficient and accurate than paper-based transactions. This movement to self-service gives employers more access to, and control of, their own UI accounts. It also provides employers with immediate access to information about unemployment benefit requests filed by former employees that may affect their unemployment account and/or tax rate.
