Unemployment Insurance Commission South Haven, Michigan to Dr. Roy Thomas Rodaway. He was the only son of the late Ed- ward W, Rodaway and his wife Mary POINTS MADE CLEAN. Louise Brickenden, life long residents of this community. He was born on Questions of a perplexing nature to employers and employees alike in regard to insurability and .contribu- tions under the Unemployment Insu- rance Act are being answered daily by Mr. R. N. Watt, Manager (Inspec- tor) of Stratford. In discussing some of these pro- blems Mr. Watt stated that there is no age limit or minimum wage limit for insurability, The employer pays both the employer and employee con- tributions for workers who earn less than 90e a day or who are under sixteen years of age. The weekly rate of stamp to be affixed in each of these cases is 27c. All employees are insurable Curless they habitually work less than four hours a day, or are availbale for anm- ployment in insurable work for only two days of the week. Accordingly, a person who ordinarily works four hours or more a day, but who at tines works for less than four hours is still insurable for each day on which he works. For any such day worked 1 -6th of a weekly stamp is inserted in the In- surance Book by the employer. The Weekly stamp is divided into six sec- tions and is rouletted so that it can be easily torn for this purpose, A half day's work by an employee wino usually works a full clay is re- corded in the Insurance Book as a full working day. Two other points have been causing some confusion. Full-time 'students who work during the school term, whether it be on Saturday or at any other time, are not insurable. If, however, they work during vacation periods they are insurable, and con- tributins must be paid to the Unem- piaymeht Insurance Fund. Benefits are stored up and may be used at some future date. In drawing bene- fits, a worker's employment history for the preceding five years is taken into tconeiderationts Contributions made during vacation months while 1, student, will increase the length of time a worker can draw benefits. A special order has been drawn up regarding students who will be em- ployed during this Christmas vaca- tion (December '13 to December 31). Students who have not worked previ- ously andhave no insurance books will be insurable, and contributions must be made on their behalf. • Finally, under the terms of the Unemployment Insurance Act, statu- tory holidays are regarded as work- ing days and contributions post be matte in the sane manner as for tate ordinary working day, if the em- ployee has worked the remainder of the week in which the holiday occurs.
