HONOLULU — The state Department of Labor & Industrial Relations recently announced the expansion of the claimant web application for claimants whose preferred languages are Tagalog and Japanese.
These languages augment the pre-existing Simplified Chinese option, making the online system for filing and certifying unemployment insurance claims accessible in the three languages most widely spoken by claimants in Hawai‘i.
The modifications to the online unemployment insurance claims system involved translating the web interface into Japanese and Tagalog in addition to Simplified Chinese. Claimants can select the preferred language and interact with the claims portal via drop-down menus in the process of applying for and certifying claims.
Auxiliary aids and services are available upon request to individuals with disabilities. TDD/TTY users should dial 711 then ask for 808-586-8866.
