During my unemployment period, I received an offer with the worst conditions I had ever experienced
I felt like I was being asked to put up with this if I wanted a job, and although I politely turned it down in the end, I was left with a bad feeling

There are many people out there who want to go back to work. There are a lot of people out there who want to go back to work, so if the employer's workplace is an attractive environment, there will be a flood of applicants.

If your employer's company or any other company can offer more generous compensation and salary than unemployment insurance under the current circumstances, I think everyone would be happy to return to work.

Good luck ！

Dear Business Owner

I have been a tour guide for Japanese tourists in Hawaii for 30 years, and since last March, Japanese tourists from Japan have not returned to Hawaii even though they want to return to work in Hawaii due to the new Corona pandemic. Because the Japanese government has imposed strict restrictions ｡

Japanese travel agencies have switched all overseas travel to virtual ｡ So even if I, as a tour guide, wanted to go back to work, I can't because I have no work ｡
.
Unlike the Japanese government, the US government is protecting the American people from this pandemic ｡

Japanese tourists will not return to Hawaii as before until 2024.
The Japanese government is taking a long time to start the vaccine, while the US mainland is almost finished ｡
Hawaii is doing everything on Hawaii time, so I understand ｡

Mr. Business Owner, once again Do you want us to LOCK DOWN in Hawaii?

Many of the visa group members around me have returned to Japan because their employers would not renew or extend their visas. My children's friends have also returned to Japan one after another. One family with a child who was born and raised here in Hawaii and will soon graduate from high school tried to find a new job in Hawaii, at least until the child graduates from high school, but they could not find one, so they went to the Mainland to look for a job, but they could not find one. There are many people who want to work but cannot. They want to go back to work, but they can't.

I understand what you are saying, business owner.
I worked from home during the lockdown and went to the office many times, putting myself at risk if necessary. If I got unemployment insurance plus $300 or $600 and a restaurant card, I would turn down the job unless the conditions were very good.
People who are working don't get that, and they can't travel for long periods of time.
But I don't think it's just people who are playing around, but people who are playing around won't get good jobs, and they won't get jobs they like in the first place. Of course, you have the right to refuse a job with bad conditions.

Dear Employer

I wonder if you are familiar with the conditions for receiving UI ？
I think your comment
－ that unemployed workers who refuse an offer to return to work should stop receiving UI, and
・ I think you are right. ・ ・ and
for example, in the QUESTION on the FILE for my UI that I am temporarily laid off,
every time Did you refuse any work from △ △ △ △ （ Company name ） ？ and
only after the UI confirms the consistency of the answer with the company
can you receive the benefit.
If the employer refuses the offer of reinstatement, the UI Office already has strict criteria in place before the employer lobbies
for the reinstatement, such as the impossibility or limitation of receiving UI. ？
*I am sure that the employer has received an inquiry from UI about the employer's FILE, so this is an important point that the employer must know.

Employer,

Nice to meet you. I am a help in this exchange square and have experienced both the employer side and the employee side.

I can't imagine how hard it is to be on the employer's side, which is under so much more pressure than the employee's side and is at a critical point of survival.

However, having received unemployment benefits due to the corona effect, I can't help but wonder how you came to your present state of mind.

Could you please describe in more detail the specific events that led you to this state of mind, the type of business you are recruiting for （ food and beverage, IT, etc. ） and what benefits you are offering, as long as you cannot identify the company? ？

I feel that this is a valuable opportunity for employers and employees to deepen their understanding of each other.

I partially agree with the business owner.

I think that people in the competitive US society who are just waiting for a well-paying job to come down to them (or come back up to them) have no sense of crisis at all, and their minds must be in a flower garden.

Do they really think that they can fight on the same playing field as those who are also unemployed, but who worked hard at volunteer work during their unemployment period, went to school to challenge something new, or obtained qualifications? ？

In a pandemic The stores that survived are the ones that are loved by local customers. Stores that cater to Japanese tourists have almost no support from locals. If you still want to live in Hawaii but don't think the Japanese tourists will return for a few years, don't you think it's a good time to consider a change in business/career direction ？

If you stay in your comfort zone for too long, you will never get out of it. You will not be able to get out of it. If you keep on being extravagant, aggressive mainland companies will take your business opportunities and you may not even have a place to work.

With so many unemployed people, is it so easy to find a job with good conditions from the beginning ？ Even if the conditions are not so good, can't you gain experience there and use that experience to move on to a position with better conditions? ？

I am not unemployed, but if I had to compete for a position with someone like you, I don't think I would lose. Thanks to the fact that there are a certain number of people who think the same way, not only among Japanese living in Hawaii but also among local residents, I was blessed with a good job even though I moved to Hawaii with no support at all. In Japan, the stakes are high, but in the U.S., I believe the opposite is true.

If you find something that you think is interesting, why don't you take this opportunity to act on it, instead of just waiting for a good offer to come along?

Dear Fruitful Happenings Sleep on it

I think what you are saying in your ＃ 6 is a good argument.
Especially for those of us who were hard workers before the Corona disaster, or who have held positions or important jobs of a certain caliber, or
have more than enough experience to step up to the next level.

Mr. SUNSET.

I have admired Mr. sunset's breadth of knowledge and his volunteer spirit for almost a year, and have supported and thanked him from the bottom of my heart.
He is the kind of person I would love to invite to H R, an ignorant manager like me.

I have been running my business in Hawaii for decades.
I have done business in Waikiki, but since 9-11, I have focused on local business and have been supported by local people through many difficult times.
In order to give back to the local people, we have been contributing to the local community in a small way.
Therefore, I have never received unemployment benefits.

At the time of the pandemic, sales were down as much as 5%, and we were prepared to go out of business and re-evaluate our life insurance benefits.
I have managed to secure employment by disposing of my personal assets and reducing my compensation to the point where I can eat, and after enduring this past year with the support of the national PPP and local clients, business has finally recovered and I see bright prospects for the future.

In the midst of all this, the other day at a local cross-industry meeting, we heard unanimously that there is a shortage of employees, even more than before the pandemic, due to the overly generous UI.
And everyone was concerned that this could be a disincentive for the future, such as a decline in the quality of Hawaii's economy.
So, I wanted to throw a stone at the risk of being flamed and ask everyone to think about it.

In addition, our benefits are nothing special, but health insurance, Christmas ・ bonuses, vacations, 401K, trips to Japan for the best, training programs, and this time, reimbursement of vacation time frozen last year.

What was posted by "I agree", etc., was exactly what I was trying to say.

Thank you.

I am also a business owner, but the only people still receiving benefits are probably those who cannot speak English and can only work for Japanese-owned travel agencies, tours, and wedding-related businesses. It's been more than a year now, so many people around me are not playing around if they have a decent idea and try to study something or work in a different industry.
I rather don't understand why you don't do it. Even if it's good for now, isn't it scary in the long run. if they look at your Resume and say you didn't do anything at Corona Disaster, I don't think they will hire you unless you are very good. By the way, there are people who will properly apply if you advertise for jobs. Topy's conditions may be a little too bad.

I have never met anyone around me who lost their job at a medical, legal, or accounting firm in the Corona Disaster, so I wonder if those who are still receiving unemployment insurance are, as you wrote, those who cannot speak English and can only work at Japanese-owned travel agencies, tours, and wedding-related businesses.
I have an impression that many of them changed jobs at an abnormally high rate, and many of them complain and quarrel with other Japanese people.
If they receive too generous benefits that are higher than what they were earning when they were working, they will never be able to get out of it.
What will they do when their unemployment insurance expires?

Mr. Murmur
It is true that many people who qualify for unemployment insurance do not speak perfect English and have worked for travel agencies or wedding-related businesses. I am one of them. And I worked hard and proudly before Corona. There is a saying, "the right person for the job," and I have come to believe that this job is my calling.

I don't know what the future holds for the end of Corona, but shouldn't I expect that I will be able to return to my job? There are people like that in any profession. Please do not have prejudice.
Certainly, I have received higher guarantees than when I was working.
But I haven't lost my work ethic, which is more important than money.
We are also thinking about what we will do after our unemployment insurance benefits end.
Your opinion is a bit condescending to those who are not good at English ？.

If you have priority on unemployment insurance, it doesn't matter how much you say. They are so preoccupied with not working and getting as much as possible. It is a human weakness.
But they will surely pay for it, and when the unemployment insurance ends,
they will start to get impatient. Until then, anything you say will be tofu and nails. It's a waste of time to fight here. It's a waste of time for those who are working right now.

As a capitalist nation, the U.S. has a duty to work and pay taxes.
I think that unemployed people who do not look for work or refuse offers to return to work should stop receiving UI payments
and I will lobby for that.


＞ Topix's thinking is very left-leaning （ Leftist ） You are a biased business person.
Look, workers choose their jobs （ and their working conditions ） and they have a right to do so.
You don't attract people because you don't offer attractive conditions.

#18 Eh ？ Mr.

If the employer's company and other companies can offer more generous compensation and salary than unemployment insurance under the current circumstances,
I think people will gladly return to work.
In response to the statement
＞ For those who were hard workers before the Corona disaster, or those who have had a good position or important job, or
have more than enough experience to step up to the next level.
but please read something ？ before and after the sentence carefully.

Eh ？ I'll answer your question, "Are such people unemployed in the first place ？?"
Yes. They are my friends and juniors. They worked for VIP hospitality hoteliers, concierges, airlines, etc. in top hotels. Due to the Corona disaster, they lost their jobs without saying whether or not they had the ability and work ethic of most people.
They were very hard workers and very well paid, so even when they received the maximum amount of unemployment insurance, it was
incomparably less than their original salary.
That's why you wrote
"If your employer's company or any other company can offer more generous compensation and salary than unemployment insurance under the current circumstances,
I think everyone would be happy to return to work." This leads to the following.
However, once they are further vaccinated and their social lives are closer to their pre-Corona status,
they should be recalled by their employers soon because of their popularity and the experience they have accumulated.
One of my friends has been asked by the CEO to return to work soon. On excellent terms, of course.

I am surprised that there are so many people
in this topic, not only you
who are receiving unemployment insurance, ＝ who have no desire to work, etc.

This topical person does not understand at all. If you were a young person, it would not be so difficult to change to another industry. How difficult would it be for a middle-aged or older person like me? Different industries require different skills. I guess they think that all people who receive unemployment insurance are like that because there were people like that near them.

I kind of understand what you are trying to say, Topi.
"XX store is looking for someone, but no one is available ？" has come up a lot in the last few months.
But in the end, everyone's answer is, "How much per hour ？ then it's better to get a UI." And that's the end of it.
Although they say that they are in trouble if they don't do this, they don't try hard to find a job because of the good amount of UI money in the immediate future.
I don't know about those who were high-skilled and paid well because I am not around them, but those who were part-timers or belonged to the tourism industry are often like this.
I think this idea will never go away ？ as long as UI's ＄ 300 etc are out there.

Reading this topic, it seems to me that the focus here is on unemployment insurance recipients
rather than trying to get current unemployment insurance recipients to return to work,
I would suggest that employers who are hiring should focus on making further efforts to expand employment beyond those recipients.
If they are already receiving unemployment insurance, they should focus their efforts on expanding employment beyond those who are currently receiving unemployment insurance. If you are already working on this and can't find anyone willing to work for you, that's even worse.
There are many more people with skills and abilities who are looking for work who are not receiving unemployment insurance because they did not meet the requirements for unemployment insurance
for some reason, such as being sick at the time they applied for unemployment insurance, leaving Hawaii, or accidentally leaving before the Corona Disaster
than those who are currently receiving unemployment insurance. There are quite a few people with skills and abilities who do not receive unemployment insurance.
There are various types of people, including those who are able to live on their previous savings, those who are trying to light a fire under their fingernails, and those who
may not be able to afford food, clothing, and shelter at this point.
I think it will be easier to balance supply and demand between those who need people to work and those who want to work.
For example, if you are a restaurant owner, you can offer meals, or if you can afford a room, you can offer live-in work, etc.
I think it is necessary to make efforts to secure good human resources by considering some attractive conditions and benefits as much as possible.

Some of the current unemployment insurance recipients may be thinking TAKE IT EASY, while others may be thinking ahead.
At this point, it is said that PEUC-related unemployment insurance will not be available until the first week of September at the longest, so
it is not something that people around you should be fussing about, since it is your own choice whether you will be the ant or the grasshopper.

#20 Business Owner,

Thank you very much for your sincere response and support. I admire from the bottom of my heart Japanese people like you who are making a great effort to blend in with the local community in the U.S. I am sure that you are doing a great job. I can only imagine how wrenching it must have been for you when you reviewed your management. I am so glad that you were able to pass and successfully receive a PPP loan, which is a payroll compensation program for employers.

The Unemployment Insurance Help Team says that even the UI Office, which is Essential Work, is understaffed. However, in the case of the UI Office, "salary not commensurate with the highly intelligent nature of the work" and "short-term employment" are said to be the biggest reasons for the low application rate.

Hawaii is still far from fully reopening. Not only the tourism industry, but also sports bars, karaoke, movie theaters, and other dense industries have only partially reopened after being permitted to operate. As you know, there has also been news that corona infections may increase again and return to Tier Stage 2.

Unless the corona subsides further with the vaccine, it seems that the employer side, the unemployed side, and the worker side are all stuck and now have no choice but to follow the final decision of the federal government in the White House and the Hawaiian government. You may have already contacted them, but if you want to express your opinion as an employer, it may be useful to contact the Hawaii government representative who has jurisdiction over the area where your employer's business address is located directly and let them know the current situation that is happening at your employer. As for the $300 per week and COBRA free health insurance benefits that are said to be hindering the application rate, I think the federal government will indeed not extend them after September, unless the newly introduced mutant coronavirus spreads and causes a re-lockdown. I think we will see new activity in the job market around that time. Regarding those who are unemployed, as far as I know, the overwhelming majority are experienced and talented people. Thinking about how we can attract them and reinforce human resources may be a new management technique that employers are testing in the current Corona era. In particular, you may want to read past cases of companies that have been very successful in hiring seniors, as they often provide hints.

Rather than lobbying activities that could be misunderstood as pushing people who are unemployed away, I think that an attitude of support and full cooperation for their return to work would attract people to the inside of the business owner who is working hard in local business while contributing to the community.

In any workplace, employees silently watch every aspect of their employers and managers. Especially in the small Hawaiian community, the exchange of information among employees can spread quickly. Loco people also exchange information closely with each other, saying, "Be careful about jobs at this company, because they are outrageous. They exchange information closely with each other. Considering the business owner's future business development, why not refrain from this kind of lobbying? I have read the various voices on this topic, and while the business owner understands the Hawaii unemployment situation due to the Corona blowout, I thought I wrote this with the intention of criticism and flames, but this topic has become a sad composition of "workers vs. unemployed vs. employers" with no one benefiting. As a result, I feel that the true intention of the employer, "I want everyone to think about this for the sake of Hawaii's economy," has become difficult to convey and has led to the opposite effect.

As a personal suggestion, you may have already posted this, but if you are looking for Japanese staff, it would be much more meaningful to lobby your fellow employers to "get the procedures from Vivinavi and post it on the job search board".

Currently, with the ongoing topical discussion on the unemployment insurance program, the number of visits to the BibiNavi site is increasing rapidly, and the probability of unemployed people reading the job search bulletin board is increasing. Before finishing a job posting on the Vivinavi site or Indeed site, if you have friends who are unemployed, interviewing them about what kind of job descriptions they find appealing may be a quick way to increase the application rate.

I also volunteer in the local community when I have time. Let's work hard for each other in hopes of Hawaii's revival. I wish for the continued growth of your company.

Hawaii is full of incompetent Japanese people, so many of them do not have the courage and energy to work in a new place. Most people are satisfied with a shared room and hang on to Hawaii no matter how long they are in a Japanese-owned company with a generous binefit.
There are so many people who only see value in themselves living in Hawaii.
They have no choice but to hang on to their unemployment insurance.
They are incompetent.

To everyone reading this topic,

Nice to meet you. My name is sunset and I have been helping those who are unemployed in the topic about "PEUC Unemployment Insurance Extension Program". I have read the various voices on this topic and would like to share my thoughts. Please forgive me for the length of this message. I myself once experienced unemployment and am now back to work. I have also been an employer in the past. I have a reasonable understanding of the struggles and perplexities of those who are unemployed, those who are working, and those who are employers.

Several of the loco unemployment insurance help team who back me up are still unemployed in the tourism industry and the rest are working short or full time. One of them is a mother with three small children.

All of the Unemployment Insurance Help Team are highly intelligent enough to decipher the White House Federal Corona Bailout Bill overnight, which is so difficult to phrase that even English speakers cannot read it. I am the only one who cannot read the bailout bill, and I have asked them to explain it to me and provide information on this exchange square as needed.

First of all, I would like to express my deepest and most sincere thanks to those of you who have been working for Essential Companies since the Corona lockdown without receiving unemployment insurance benefits. It is because of your work that we are able to eat, shelter, and clothe ourselves safely.

I would like to talk about the unemployment insurance due to this corona impact. If you ask me, the UI office was really in a bad situation this time to the point of losing my temper. The Hawaiian Time excuse is just not working: the information sharing between the UI director and the field staff is ear-splittingly dysfunctional, and the advice from the call center consultation service is disjointed. Furthermore, the UI system is a 1980's version with many errors. Errors still occur even now.

The English-speaking locals, who are swamped by such a UI office, are in a panic, having lost their jobs and being forced to pay tomorrow's bills. The Japanese people were many times more panicked. If the UI office had been more solid, there would not have been so many unemployment insurance topics in this exchange square.

There are so many different types of people receiving unemployment insurance, as well as those who are working and their employers. I am convinced that those who have read and worked hard on my vastly increasing advice and those who have generously provided information are those who have worked diligently even before Corona. Through the dozens of personal consulting e-mails I received every day last year, I can now easily recognize them by their writing style.

These people are serious about their lives, and when the time comes, they have already thought about the best course of action without needing anyone else to tell them. Even locals are in a panic about unemployment insurance, so it doesn't matter if you can speak English or not. It all comes down to the attitude of "Are you going to take it seriously as a party or not?

Also, among those who have become totally unemployed, the more diligently they have worked at what they believe is their vocation, and the more they have worked at a place they love, the longer it will take for their emotional damage to heal. Those who have been temporarily laid off also carry the anxiety of not knowing what will happen tomorrow. The pressure is unimaginable, especially for those who have to support their families.

Therefore, I believe that the generous unemployment insurance includes "psychological recovery money" for those who have been laid off without saying whether they want to or not after being hit hard by the Corona impact. If they spend a great deal of that recovery money on shopping, eating, and drinking, the sales will spread to essential companies. For example, if you shop for vegetables at the supermarket, those sales will help the supermarket, the supplier, and the farmer. As a side note, the restaurant cards distributed to the unemployed saved many in the restaurant and distribution industry, and many in the restaurant industry are still clamoring for the restaurant card to be reissued.

Without this unemployment insurance benefit, the overall consumption rate in Hawaii would drop dramatically, and both the worker and employer sides of the essential companies would fall together. And public safety would deteriorate even further, and the Hawaiian economy could irreparably collapse. Right now, I think we are on the verge of a major collapse.

The people who should be criticized the most are the unemployed people who intentionally received unemployment insurance benefits through out-of-state residency, identity theft, and illegal activities and still have not confessed. The UI office is most to blame for not doing their due diligence in awarding the benefits, but as the news has shown, the illegal activity has resulted in the waste of hundreds of millions of dollars in Hawaii's unemployment insurance funds. This illegal activity will later affect the unemployment insurance taxes that each company pays each year. I won't go into details, but last year, I received several harassing e-mails from some of the people who committed illegal acts in the Bibi Navi Exchange Plaza. As a fellow Japanese, I am very ashamed of this story.

Finally. I would like to tell those who are unemployed, those who are working, and those who are employers. Each person has his/her own circumstances and background that others do not understand. I don't think anyone has the right to judge one way or the other unless they are fully aware of those circumstances and backgrounds.

Rocco's Unemployment Insurance Help Team actually reads this exchange square every day using a translation site. Imagine how they feel when they read this topical issue, as they are the most important people with a helping mindset.

And if Hawaii, where we are allowed to live, is to be restored, please reconsider what you can do for Hawaii and those close to you.

PS:
I deeply agree with CLOSE UP's thoughts. If we continue to criticize each other like this, we will only be laughed at by non-Hawaii residents, so it is time for those of us who care about Hawaii to CLOSE up our posts on this topic.
