Informational Representative, 402 Labor and Industries Bldg., Sa­ lem, Oregon 97310.) QUESTION: Where does the De­ partment of Employment obtain its labor market information and for what is it used? ANSWER: The Research and Sta­ tistics Division of the Oregon De­ partment of Employment obtains its statistics on local labor markets from employers’ reports, job applica­ tions, employment records, employ­ ers’ orders, labor unions, schools and colleges and governmental agen­ cies and also from special studies from time to time iri various areas about the state. Users of this infor­ mation are the Oregon State Employ­ ment Service for placement and counseling of workers, employers in determining recruitment methods and plant locations; labor unions in determining apprenticeship policies; schools and colleges in planning vo­ cational programs; government and community agencies including cham­ bers of commerce in developing em­ ployment and industrial expansion. One of the major recent uses has been the determination of need for certain occupational training which has become available under the Man- QUESTION: Just what are the maxi­ mum unemployment insurance bene­ fits in Oregon? ANSWER: Department of Employ­ ment law sets the smallest weekly benefit amount at $20 and the larg­ est of $44. If you meet or exceed the basic qualifications of 20 weeks of work in which you earned an aver­ age of $20 per week and you had a total base year wage of $700 or more, you will receive at least $20 a week in benefits if you fulfill all other eligibility requirements. Increases in the weekly benefit amount are deter­ mined by a percentage (1.25 percent) of your total base year wages for employers covered by unemploy­ ment insurance. The total amount you may receive in your benefit year will be either 26 times your weekly amount or one-third of your total base year wages, whichever is the lesser. The maximum amount pay­ able is $1144. When you’re behind the wheel use your eyes, your ears, and your knows. : Phone HÄ S-3462 I NEHALEM VALLEY ! MOTOR FREIGHT I____________________________ J li V«
