Providing
unemployment benefits to school bus drivers and janitorial staff employed in
public schools in between two academic years is a mandate to local school
administrative units, a majority of which are direct reimbursement employers. The Department of Labor has determined
that approximately 1,600 school bus drivers and 2,940 janitors were employed
by Educational Services establishments as of September 2004. Assuming that all of the 4,540 school bus
drivers and janitors were employed by local school administrative units, and
the weekly unemployment benefit was $203.00 for school bus drivers and
$288.00 for janitors, the total cost to the local units would be $9,371,000. |
