The North Carolina General Assembly recently passed legislation making several changes to the law governing eligibility of former employees for unemployment benefits. The new legislation allows a former employee to claim benefits when he/she leaves work to take care of a disabled family member, when he/she leaves and there is evidence of domestic violence, and when he/she is looking for part-time employment rather than full-time employment. The new legislation also reduces eligibility restrictions on certain employees who follow their spouses to a new location.
