Washington Administrative Code
Title 192 - Employment Security Department
UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE
Chapter 192-350 - Transfer of business
Section 192-350-030 - Predecessor-successor transfers through intermediaries

Universal Citation: WA Admin Code 192-350-030
Current through Register Vol. 24-18, September 15, 2024

When operating assets are transferred from one employer to another by using an intermediary whose role is to arrange or assist the transfer process (RCW 50.04.320 and 50.29.062), the department will decide on a case-by-case basis whether a predecessor-successor relationship exists. The fact that an intermediary was used does not preclude the existence of a predecessor-successor relationship.

In determining if a predecessor-successor relationship exists, the department will consider the intent of the parties involved and the economic reality of the transactions, as opposed to the strict legal format of the multiple transfers.

Statutory Authority: RCW 50.12.010, 50.12.040, and 50.29.064. 07-23-131, § 192-350-030, filed 11/21/07, effective 1/1/08.
