Each nonprofit organization that has elected to make payments in lieu of
contributions under KRS 341.275 shall pay to the cabinet for the fund the amount of
regular benefits plus the amount of one-half (1/2) of extended benefits paid that are
attributable to service performed in covered employment in the employ of such
nonprofit employer. Each governmental entity that has elected to make payments in
lieu of contributions under the provisions of KRS 341.277 shall pay to the cabinet
for the fund the amount of all regular benefits plus all extended benefits paid for
compensable weeks occurring after January 1, 1979, attributable to service
performed in covered employment.
Two (2) or more employers that have become liable for payments in lieu of
contributions, in accordance with the provisions of KRS 341.275, may file a joint
application to the secretary for the establishment of a group account for the purpose
of sharing the cost of benefits paid that are attributable to service in the employ of
such employers. Each such application shall identify and authorize a group
representative to act as the group's agent for the purposes of this subsection. Upon
his approval of the application, the secretary shall establish a group account for such
employers effective as of the beginning of the calendar quarter in which he receives
the application and shall notify the group's representative of the effective date of the
account. Such account shall remain in effect for not less than two (2) years and
thereafter until terminated at the discretion of the secretary or upon application by
the group. Upon establishment of the account, each member of the group shall be
jointly and severally liable for payment to the fund in lieu of contributions with
respect to each calendar quarter in an amount equal to the total benefits paid in such
quarter that are attributable to service performed in the employ of any or all
members of the group. The secretary shall prescribe such procedures as he deems
necessary with respect to applications for establishment, maintenance and
termination of group accounts that are authorized by this subsection, for addition of
new members to, and withdrawal of active members from, such accounts, and for
the determination of the amounts that are payable under this subsection and the time
and manner of such payments.
Two (2) or more governmental entities that have become liable for payment in lieu
of contributions, in accordance with the provisions of KRS 341.277, may file a joint
application to the secretary for the establishment of a group account of
governmental entities subject to all of the provisions of subsection (2) of this
section.
