Insurance Tax Being Reduced A lower unemployment insurance tax schedule will be in effect in 1969 and the reduced rates will save an estimated $6 million for covered North Carolina em ployers. The tax scale, which is determined by the amount of money in the state’s un employment insurance fund, will drop taxes for some employers to as low as .2 per cent of their taxable payrolls. John Thomas, manager of the state employment office here, said the Em ployment Security Com mission announced the new tax rate Friday, saying that employment among workers covered by unem ployment insurance had been low enough to enable North Carolina to main tain a fairly high unem ployment insurance fund. The program is financed by excise taxes paid by employers on most indus trial payrolls. Benefits paid to jobless workers under the program come from a trust fund maintained by taxes on the first $3,000 paid to covered workers. A special “experience rating” feature of the North Ca rolina law allows com panies and firms with good history of employment to qualify for reduced taxes. Hie 1969 tax rates will range from .2 to 2.7 per cent for employers who have a balance in their un employment insurance ac counts, and from 2.9 to 4.7 per cent for employers who have deficit reserves. Thomas said the commis sion estimates the average tax rate will be 1.1 per cent in 1969, lowest in North Carolina since 1955. “Industrial payrolls have been increasing every year,” he said, “and unemploy ment has been declining. With fewer unemployment insurance benefits being paid, file state reserve fund has become great enough to permit lower taxes for most employ ers.” It AH Depewits Private (reading)—What’s a Chinese urn?
