Sub program boosts unemployment support across states
The Fordom model for SUB programs proves influential as they cover about 2 million workers. Ohio allows SUB checks without reducing unemployment compensation while other states mostly permit full state benefits alongside SUB payments. SUBs pay up to 65 percent of take home pay in four weeks and 60 percent for 22 more. wide variance exists in weekly SUB sums. Walter Reuther argues SUBs offer more security at little extra cost and citesSteel, GM, Chrysler contributions totaling 147 million to SUB funds since 1955. Reuther proposes 60 percent pay for a full year and aid for workers with persistently low pay. Senators Douglas and others discuss higher unemployment figures if part-time workers are counted differently, influencing tax cuts and perceived labor force slack.
