LINCOLN, Neb. - Nebraska’s unemployment website, NEworks, is back online following an outage impacting the site’s vendor, Geographic Solutions, Inc.
Among multiple states impacted, Nebraska’s site was the first to come back online. GSI has also restored other state websites, with more to come.
NDOL will ensure that unemployment claimants are able to receive the benefits for which they are eligible. The agency is prioritizing payments for weeks already claimed. Back payments will be issued to all eligible claimants. Filers should check their account for status updates.
The NEworks system prompts workers with active claims to file for two weeks of benefits if a certification has not already been filed for the week ending June 25.
If an individual has recently become unemployed and was unable to file an initial application for unemployment benefits or reopen their claim because of the system outage, they should request back dating of the application by emailing NDOL.Unemploymenthelp@nebraska.gov.
