Separation Packet

All Connecticut employers must provide a Separation Packet, which includes a Separation Notice (UC-61) and instructions to the worker immediately upon termination of employment or indefinite layoff.
The notice should be provided regardless of whether the termination is voluntary or involuntary.
The former employee will need this notice to submit a claim for unemployment compensation.

Vacation Shutdown Unemployment Notice (UC-62V)

The Department of Labor wants to diminish use of the vacation shutdown unemployment notice (UC-62V), previously required  for layoffs of less than six weeks, either scheduled or unscheduled.
Employers should use the Separation Packet (see above) for temporary layoffs.
