answer text

The Department has no plans to cap the number of times a sanction might apply to a claimant’s benefit in a month. There are established safeguards to prevent the accrual of sanctions. This prevents the duration of a sanction escalating if the sanctionable failure occurs within two weeks of a previous similar failure.
