Laying off employees

Connecticut’s unemployment separation kit helps employees who are being laid off. Use it to provide the forms and information they’ll need to file for unemployment benefits. 

You can make it easier to administer layoffs by using SIDES. This secure online system allows you to quickly receive and respond to separation information requests and hearing notices from the CT Department of Labor.

 Contact us if you need guidance on how to lay off employees with dignity. Our Rapid Response Team can also help your business recover from a downturn.
