Over $6.3M in Unemployment Tax Savings in a Single State
By turning persistent UI tax challenges into strategic savings, UC Alternative helped this healthcare provider secure over $6.3 million in relief and regain focus on delivering quality care.
Client:
A three-decades-old provider of skilled nursing, assisted living, rehabilitation, and post-acute services with approximately a dozen locations across the Southeast.
Challenge:
Rising unemployment taxes driven by:
- Persistent, high workforce turnover
- Inconsistent unemployment claims handling
- Limited internal resources to manage claims effectively
- UI tax rates well above the state industry average
These challenges created a recurring financial drain and diverted attention from delivering critical care.
Solution:
To gain control of their unemployment tax exposure, the client chose to outsource both:
- Unemployment Claims Management to gain UC Alternative’s expertise and professional representation on every claim, from documentation to hearings as needed.
- Tax Rate Optimization: Strategic guidance to legally minimize UI tax rates through proactive rate management and compliance.
Results:
Beginning with tax year 2013 through 2024, UC Alternative helped the client achieve a cumulative UI tax savings of $6,368,862 by lowering the YOY tax rate to a level significantly below the state industry average.
Additionally, by partnering with UC Alternative, the client:
- Improved internal processes and reduced claim errors
- Reclaimed time and focus for HR leadership
“This partnership didn’t just cut costs—it gave us back control. UC Alternative became an extension of our HR team.” — VP of HR
