Summary

The bill revises Connecticut unemployment law so workers out of work because of a labor dispute can claim benefits if the dispute has lasted at least 14 days and the worker is not actively participating or financing the strike. It also defines when a lockout qualifies for benefits. The change is intended to give financial relief to workers caught in prolonged disputes while limiting claims by active strikers.
