SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED

BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

R.47-6 instructs the Department on setting an employer's tax class when that employer has zero taxable wages. The Department proposes deleting obsolete sections that provide for assignment of employers to a tax class in the year 2011 only. The proposed amendment also removes references to the "2012 and subsequent" tax years for clarity, readability, and overall improvement of the text of the regulation.

The Notice of Drafting was published in the State Register on August 26, 2022.
