About the HR Unemployment Office

The University of Kentucky Human Resources Unemployment Department (HR UE) is responsible for responding to claims, attending hearings as required, and providing other services related to unemployment. Unemployment benefits are for employees who have experienced loss of work due to work not available or reduction in force. The State of Kentucky decides if unemployment benefits are paid according to state rules and laws.
