You start paying someone's unemployment the second you hire them, because most states require unemployment insurance by law. You don't suddenly get a new bill

  Ok, looking further into this: “Nevada uses the "Reserve Ratio" formula to determine previous experience, which is the method used by a majority of the states. The Employment Security Division maintains a permanent "Experience Record" for each employer, consisting of accumulated taxes paid, accumulated benefits charged to his account, and average taxable payroll for the prior 3 years. Each year, the employer's reserve ratio is calculated from his experience record to determine his tax rate under the schedule in effect.” http://ui.nv.gov/ESSHTML/ui_information.htm http://ui.nv.gov/ESSHTML/ui_information.htm

  >You don't suddenly get a new bill when someone is let go The link you provided mentioned that an employer may/will have to pay a higher percentage of unemployment payroll insurance/tax after more former employees collect unemployment. Their rate goes up based on how many employees they lay off. I realize this isn't exactly what the comment you were applying to was talking about, but I thought it was interesting. I knew there was some reason that employers don't want their ex-employees to receive unemployment.
