State PAYING People on Unemployment to Return to Work

The Maine state government announced it would be offering $1,500 payments to residents who begin working between June 15-30 in an effort to incentivise residents currently receiving unemployment benefits to return to work.

The state government said the payments, which are part of their “Back to Work” program, will be administered by the Maine Department of Labor and the Department of Economic and Community Development.

On top of the $1,500 payment, residents returning to the workforce in June will be eligible for an additional $1,000 payment, according to the Bangor Daily News.

The program, which operates on a first-come, first-serve basis and has the potential to impact up to 7,500 Maine residents, will use $10 million of federal funds. (Read more from “State PAYING People on Unemployment to Return to Work” HERE)
