Statewide emergency payroll tax set for Ohio employers
Ohio employers will pay an extra emergency rate of one half of one percent in 1962 due to a low balance in the unemployment compensation fund. Administrator Donald B. Leach cited heavy benefit payments during the 1958 and 1960-61 recessions, noting total payments near 275 million in 1958 and 301 million in the year ending June 30. The levy follows a 1953 law trigger that allows such a rate when fund reserves fall short of benefits paid in the prior 24 months.
