Any otherwise eligible individual shall be entitled during any benefit year to a total amount of benefits equal to twenty-six times his weekly benefit amount or one-third of his wage credits for insured work paid during his base period, whichever is the lesser; except that benefits based on seasonal wages may be paid only for unemployment during the normal seasonal period of the seasonal industry in which such wage credits were earned and only to seasonal workers who are available for work in such seasonal industry, and the total thereof shall not exceed one-third of such individual's wages paid for insured seasonal work during the corresponding normal seasonal period of his base period. For the purposes of this section, wages shall be counted as "wages for insured work" for benefit purposes with respect to any benefit year only if such benefit year begins subsequent to the date on which the employing unit by whom the wages were paid has satisfied the conditions of section 8-70-113, 8-76-104, or 8-76-107, with respect to becoming an employer.(2)(b)(I) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section or of section 8-76-102.5(11)(a), benefits based upon regular part-time employment may not be charged to the experience rating account of the regular part-time employer until the claimant has become separated from the regular part-time employment, and then only for those weeks of unemployment that occur after the separation.(II) This paragraph (b) is effective December 31, 2012.L. 36, 3rd Ex.
