This calculator can be used to project changes in deduction amounts and net pay when there are changes in pay amounts, hours worked, mandatory and voluntary deductions, including all pre-tax deductions such as retirement, insurances, deferred compensation or flexible spending plans. Federal and state tax withholding, retirement rates, OASDI and Medicare (FICA), and insurance deductions are calculated using current rates on HRIS Production.

Profiling and Reemployment Services, October 2003

It’s a way to help you move from unemployment to reemployment with customized services that meet your individual needs and take you where you want to go — back to work! Profiling is done in the early stages of your unemployment insurance claim by looking at certain factors, such as previous occupation, previous industry, education, duration of employment, wages, etc. Depending on the availability of services, some people identified by Iowa Workforce Development Centers during this profiling process will be offered the opportunity to benefit from additional reemployment services.
