Q9)

Experience tax rate refers to a method for determining the contribution rates of individual employers according to the factors specified in the state unemployment compensation code for measuring an employer's experience with respect to unemployment. The experience rate is designed to ensure that an employer has sufficient funds to cover future unemployment disbursements. The Employers are charged a premium if they are facing higher risks according to the experience rate. The loss experience of a particular employer is compared to the loss experience of similar groups of employers. Based on this comparison, an experience modifier is calculated for each employer.

There is no concept of payroll deduction depending on the experience rate and hence it is not called as the payroll deduction rate.

Further, it can be seen in the above description that the experience rate concept is solely linked to the employer and not to the employees. Hence, it cannot be charged back to the employee.

Further, the experience rate cannot be collected by the Department of Revenue as it is not a monetary concept.

Hence, the answer is ‘none of the above’
