How Does a Pennsylvania Unemployment Compensation Bond Work? 

An unemployment coverage bond creates a legal contract between these three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the employer filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Department of Labor and Industries requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding all applicable provisions of the Pennsylvania Unemployment Compensation Law. 

If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you must ultimately refund the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

These bonds expire after four years. To renew your unemployment compensation bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
