UIC § 702.1Div. 1 · Part 1 · Ch. 3 · Art. 4

Statute text

(a)As used in this section, “nonprofit organization” means any corporation, community chest, fund, or foundation for which services that constitute employment under Section 608 are performed and for which other services that do not constitute employment are performed, or any nonprofit organization described in Section 608 for which all services performed do not constitute employment.

(b)No election filed by a nonprofit organization under Section 702 shall be effective for service performed after December 31, 1971. All elections for coverage filed by a nonprofit organization under Section 702 prior to January 1, 1972, shall be terminated effective December 31, 1971.

(c)Any nonprofit organization for which any services that do not constitute employment are performed may, when requested by a written petition signed by a majority of its employees to be covered by the election, file with the director a written election that the services performed in one or more distinct establishments or places of business and to be covered by the election shall be deemed to constitute employment by an employer for all the purposes of this division for not less than two calendar years. If the director finds that a majority of the employees to be covered by the election have signed the petition, a nonprofit organization shall, upon the written approval of the director, become an employer with respect to such services subject to this division to the same extent as other employers, and services performed by its employees covered by the election, shall constitute employment subject to this division. Beginning at that time it shall withhold from the wages of employees covered by the election the contributions required for unemployment compensation disability benefits.
