Rhode Island is cracking down on unemployment fraud

The Rhode Island Department of Labor and Training is cracking down on employment fraud. Workers who use fraudulent tactics to get unemployment insurance will be brought up on criminal charge.

Adelita S. Orefice, director of the DLT, said in statement that individuals who fraudulently collect unemployment insurance benefits are being brought up on criminal charges.

In a written statement, Orefice said that prevention, detection, and elimination of fraud and abuse in the (unemployment insurance) program are their top priorities.

Those who have received benefits through fraudulent are required to immediately repay the money in order to avoid prosecution and conviction.
