(i) Registration by a claimant for employment search services
offered by the Pennsylvania CareerLink system or its
successor agency within thirty (30) days after initial
application for benefits.
(ii) Posting a resume on the system's database, unless the claimant is
seeking work in an employment sector in which resumes are not
commonly used.
(iii) Applying for positions that offer employment and wages similar
to those the claimant had prior to his unemployment and which
are within a forty-five (45) minute commuting distance.
(2) The Pennsylvania CareerLink system or its successor agency shall
provide documentation, on a quarterly basis or more frequently, as the
secretary deems appropriate, to the Pennsylvania Unemployment
Compensation Service Center system so the system can conduct the
necessary cross reference checks.
(3) For the purposes of paragraph (1), the department may determine
that a claimant has made an active search for suitable work if the
claimant's efforts include actions comparable to those traditional
actions in their trade or occupation by which jobs have been found
by others in the community and labor market in which the claimant
is seeking employment.
(4) The requirements of this subsection do not apply to any week in which
the claimant is in training approved under section 236(a)(1) of the Trade
Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-618, 19 U.S.C. § 2101 et seq.) or any week
in which the claimant is required to participate in reemployment services
under section 402(j) of this act.
(5) The requirements of this subsection shall not apply to a claimant who is
laid off for lack of work and advised by the employer of the date on
which the claimant will return to work.
(6) The department may waive or alter the requirements of this
subsection in cases or situations with respect to which the secretary
finds that compliance with such requirements would be oppressive
or which would be inconsistent with the purposes of this act.
