On page 6, after line 39, insert the following:

"NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A new section is added to chapter 50.20 RCW to read as follows:

If an individual receives benefits under this title while being unemployed due to a strike at the separating employer's factory, establishment, or other premises and the individual subsequently receives retroactive wages from the separating employer for any week for which he or she received benefits under this title, the department shall issue an overpayment assessment to recover the corresponding benefits as provided under RCW 50.20.190."

Renumber the remaining section consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly. Correct the title.

EFFECT: Requires the Employment Security Department to issue an overpayment assessment to recover unemployment insurance benefits for any week a striking worker later receives retroactive wages from their employer.
