NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – Tennesseans whose job was affected by Hurricane Helene can apply for Disaster Unemployment, according to the Tennessee Department of Labor (TDOL) and Workforce Development.
TDOL said those affected can apply regardless of if the “federal government has approved Disaster Unemployment Assistance yet.”
“If an individual is not eligible for state unemployment, and DUA is eventually approved for an individual’s county, they must go back to jobs4TN and apply for DUA at that time,” TDOL said in a release. “Even if a person is receiving state unemployment, they must go back and apply for DUA so they are eligible for the additional weeks of benefits the federal government provides.”
