  • Unemployment Insurance Claims Changes


    Major changes are happening on how some Florida residents in Lee County file for unemployment benefits effective August 1st, as reported by local news.  Aimed at cutting costs and getting the jobless back to work, all claims must be filed over the Internet, provide proof of contact with at least 5 potential employers per week, and complete an online skills review test to streamline job search.  Residents say they'll need to use the local library or a friend's computer.  Unemployed persons unable to make contact with at least five potential employers, can satisfy the new requirement with a visit with a representative from a One-Stop Career Center.  Lee County local career centers are seeing a sharp increase in job seekers as well.

    Pasco County's Unemployment Insurance claims residents:  Below are some useful links to help provide answers and direction for those looking for work, and those needing assistance with unemployment.  

    Pasco residents may always visit their local Pasco County Library System branch for employment help and computer use.  Library staff are more than happy to assist with job searches and unemployment information.

    Pasco County Library System (PCLS) is visited eight (8) days a month by the Career Central One-Stop Bus. 

    The library also offers sessions on employment and training.  

    In August, "We Know Where The Jobs Are" will be presented at our Land O'Lakes branch.  PCLS Library staff can be reached by phone, in person, and through Facebook.  Simply stop by or call any branch.  Land O'Lakes' staff are available at (813) 929-1214 or click on LOL Facebook page.
