Returning to work not easy for some who lost jobs to COVID BRAM SABLE-SMITH of Wisconsin Watch July 16, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail MADISON, Wis. (AP) Karen Miller wants to work. Ideally, the 65-year-old would return to her old job of digitizing government documents for Data Dimensions in Janesville, Wisconsin. But she can’t. The company laid her off in March 2020 when COVID-19 struck, and it later cut more than 100 employees after losing a contract. As the state requires, Miller since May has conducted at least four weekly “work search actions” to keep receiving the state’s maximum for unemployment benefits: $370 per week plus whatever the federal government kicks in. She would search for jobs regardless of the regulations, she said, although a heart condition limits her options.
