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.
