Do employers pay into unemployment in Pennsylvania?

Employers pay a percentage of the first $8000 of an employee's pay. The percentage is based on the company's claims record and on the state's record of employment, depending on the unemployment rate. The state tends to run out of money when unemployment is high and so the federal government forces the state to pay a surcharge.


How is FUTA calculated?

FUTA, or the Federal Unemployment Tax Act tax, is calculated based on a percentage of the first $7,000 of each employee's wages. The standard FUTA tax rate is 6.0%, but employers can receive a credit of up to 5.4% for state unemployment taxes paid, effectively reducing the rate to 0.6%. Employers are responsible for paying this tax, which funds unemployment benefits at the federal level. It's important to note that FUTA is not withheld from employee wages.
