OH HB508

Creates new section 4141.294 to allow individuals to receive unemployment compensation benefits if they separate from employment due to domestic violence

Defines "domestic violence" as acts by a family or household member including knowingly causing physical harm, recklessly causing serious physical harm, or threatening imminent physical harm

Requires claimants to provide reasonable notice to their employer of the reason for separation and document the domestic violence with a police record, court record, or address confidentiality program application

Requires employers to keep confidential any notices received regarding domestic violence separation, though the director may require employers to disclose that notice was received

Amends section 4141.29 to add exception language stating that individuals who quit work due to domestic violence are not disqualified under the marital or domestic obligations provision
