PA HB265

Amends Pennsylvania's Unemployment Compensation Law to allow non-instructional educational institution employees to receive unemployment benefits during breaks between academic years or terms, even if they have "reasonable assurance" of returning to work

Current law (in effect since October 31, 1983) denies unemployment benefits to educational workers during summer and inter-term breaks if there is reasonable assurance they will be rehired for the next term

New provision applies to services performed on and after the effective date, requiring only that the individual is otherwise eligible for benefits under federal law (26 U.S.C. § 3304(a)(6))

Takes effect 60 days after enactment
