The state unemployment agency signed a $1.1 million contract with Google Cloud systems last year to help clear a backlog of unpaid claims, but unemployment problems remain steady.
The Department of Workforce Development declared it cleared the backlog of claims created by the pandemic late last year, with the help of Google s Analytics.
They say it helped staff by predicting if a person would be eligible for benefits. However, the contract and the department both specified that a DWD staff member has to make the final eligibility determination.
