I have only unpaid volunteers – do I still have to post posters?

In order to be exempt from federal and state poster requirements, the employer must use only workers who qualify as bona fide volunteers under the Fair Labor Standards Act, bona fide volunteers are individuals who donate their services for public service, religious or humanitarian objectives, without contemplation of being paid.

How do I file a new claim or certify online?

You can file your new (initial) Unemployment Insurance (UI) claim online by going to the New Mexico Workforce Connection online system at www.jobs.state.nm.us.
