Unemployment Operation 100%

On May 11, Employment Security launched “Operation 100%” to get all eligible Washingtonians their benefits as quickly as possible. The baseline is set at those who have applied by May 1, 2020.

Hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians have lost work or had hours reduced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Employment Security Department has paid out billions of dollars to more than half a million Washingtonians since the crisis began in early March, but many are still waiting for their claim to be processed and a payment to be made.
