FRAUD CONVICTIONS IN MARICOPA COUNTY
The Department's Office of Special Investigations (OSI) uses quarterly reports of fraud convictions to provide feedback to
benefit programs. The Unemployment Insurance report is a testimonial to the overall efforts of everyone from line
personnel to you, the employer.
Statewide Unemployment Insurance fraud convictions of sixty-six individuals during the second quarter of 2000 have lead
to restitution orders and fines of $161,076, prison sentences totaling 10 years, probation periods adding up to 116 years
and community service of 3,635 hours.
UI BENEFITS TO DISCHARGED EMPLOYEES
Are you thinking of discharging an employee for misconduct?
Many employers, although they have good cause for discharging an employee, do not keep adequate records to
substantiate good cause for the discharge. This is a common problem throughout the employer community.
When you discharge an employee and protest the payment of Unemployment Insurance benefits, it is your responsibility
to provide supporting evidence to justify the discharge.
Here is a reminder list of some of the most overlooked information needed in the employee's personnel file.
1.
Keep records of all misconduct including dates, witnesses and specifically, what the employee did wrong.
2.
Keep accurate records of all warnings both verbal and written, including when warned, who did the warning and
why the employee was warned.
3.
The employer also needs to have an accurate statement of the final incident that caused the employee to be
discharged including when, why and any witnesses to the event.
Inaccurate and incomplete employee records are common reasons why employers do not receive favorable rulings when
protesting an Unemployment Insurance claim.
