RHODE ISLAND DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND TRAINING RULE 7 EXTENDED BENEFIT WORK SEARCH REQUIREMENT Any individual claiming payment for any week of extended benefits shall submit written evidence of a systematic and sustained search for work on forms provided by the Director. The work search must consist of a minimum of three (3) personal contacts at places of employment each week for which benefits are claimed. The number of contacts and the number of days on which the contacts are made should be increased as the period of unemployment lengthens and when labor market conditions warrant additional activity. No claimant, however, should be required to make an unreasonable search for work. [Reference to Employment Security Act: Section 28-44-62]
