With COVID-19 restrictions easing across much of the state, businesses across Colorado are increasing staffing and providing more opportunities for Coloradans to return to work.
Today, Governor Jared Polis signed an executive order establishing Colorado Jumpstart, a return to work incentive program designed to help out-of-work Coloradans transition back to full time employment. Under this program, Colorado unemployment claimants currently receiving state unemployment benefits or Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC) benefits may be eligible to receive an incentive payment of $1,200 to $1,600 if they return to work full time between May 16 and June 26, 2021.
As we work to reprogram our systems to implement today’s executive order, more information about the Colorado Jumpstart program — including eligibility requirements and instructions about how to participate — are available on our website at https://cdle.colorado.gov/colorado-jumpstart.
