Florida’s Department of Economic Opportunity on Monday announced that the state will withdraw from the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation program effective June 26, ending extra $300 per week payments.
The DEO said there are more than 460,000 online jobs posted online that are available throughout the state for job seekers.
“Florida’s employers are also seeing employment growth, as more Floridians, including some who completely left the workforce, are now eagerly reentering the workforce. Transitioning away from this benefit will help meet the demands of small and large businesses who are ready to hire and expand their workforce,” said Dane Eagle, secretary of the Florida DEO.

HELENA â
As unemployment falls, Montana businesses continue to struggle to find workers.
Earlier this May, the Governor s Office announced plans to opt out of pandemic unemployment assistance and give workers receiving unemployment a one-time bonus for securing employment.
As more people are vaccinated and restrictions ease, business is returning to normal.
âBusiness has been coming back rapidly. Itâs going to get much more intense,â says Toby DeWolf, owner of Bert & Ernieâs in Helena.
The return to normal could be challenging for businesses as they compete for workers in a tight labor market.
