Subchapter 5 - Small Employer Quality Jobs Program
Section 710:85-5-9 - Verification of claim

The Commission shall verify the actual gross payroll for new direct jobs utilizing all available information. All participating companies are required to retain documentation to verify the quality jobs employees and rebate amounts claimed. Documents retained shall include all employee names, both base and new employees, social security numbers, original hire dates, termination dates, individual wages drawn for each month, and copies of claim forms for the duration of the contract. Baseline employees must be filled by active employees as of the last business day of each month. If an employee in the baseline group is terminated or retires prior to the last business day of the month, the qualified establishment must replace the employee with a quality jobs employee or a newly hired employee. These records shall be retained in both hard copy form and in an electronic format, approved by the Commission, for a minimum of three (3) years after the final rebate payment is received by the company. In the event the Commission is unable to verify the gross payroll, the Commission may request additional information from the qualified establishment or may request the qualified establishment revise its claim to the amount verified by the Commission.
