The maximum benefits Connecticut pays on unemployment is $537 per week plus $15 per week per eligible dependent (maximum of $75), For details on the computation, see the Related Link below.

How is the weekly entitlement computed?

The amount of weekly entitlement is the Weekly Benefit Rate. This figure is the amount to which you are entitled before any reductions are applied. This figure does not include any dependency allowance.

The method of computing the Weekly Benefit Rate is contained in the law and can be generally summarized as follows:

The two highest of the four calendar quarters that make up your Base Period are used to determine your Weekly Benefit Rate. The average of the gross wages received in the two highest quarters is divided by 26. If wages are only received in one quarter, that quarter plus zero is averaged and divided by 26.

Example:

Highest quarter of earnings

=

$4,000

Second highest quarter

=

$3,908

Total

=

$7,908

Divided by 2, equals average of 2 high quarters

=

$3,954

Divided by 26

=

$152.08

Weekly Benefit Rate (rounded down)

=

$152

The average of total wages in the two high quarters = $3,954, divided by 26 = $152.08 (rounded down) is a Weekly Benefit Rate of $152. The Weekly Benefit Rate may range from a minimum of $15 to a current maximum of $555.

NOTE: You must have earned at least forty (40) times your Weekly Benefit Rate during the Base Period in order to be eligible to receive this amount. Based on the above example, you must have total Base Period earnings of $6080 (152 x 40).

How much do high class bartenders get paid per hour?

Surprisingly, almost all bartenders get the minimum wage. The value in the job comes from tips. If the bartender mixes drinks for a barmaid, he gets a cut of her tips, in addition to the tips he makes for the service at the bar. Private parties are charged at an agreed upon price in advance. A good bartender can make in excess of $300 per night...on a good night. The variability of the trade makes it an unsteady career.

Disadvatages of being a bartender?

Cons: 1. Low Wage - bartenders do not make much in the way of an hourly wage, in most states bartenders are paid minimum wage. Bartenders actual incomes come from tips. Depending on the type of bar tips can vary.2. Turnovers - there are a lot of turnovers in bartending. Most bartenders, even ones doing a good job, find themselves looking for a new job for a change on enviornment.3. Changing Employment - even though it is a skilled job going from one establishment to the next can be difficult as their are different rules, policies, and prices at every bar or club. Environments can vary and take some time to adjust to.4. Enthusiasm - as a bartender you want to make good tips. In order to make good tips no matter what time of day or type of day you always have to have a friendly smile and an open ear for the customers. This can be hard to do everyday.


Are bartenders fees taxable?

While I am not exactly certain what you mean by "bartenders fees", presumably either - 1) Wage paid to a bartender where tips are expected on top - (hence sometimes allowed to be below minimum wage - like waitresses) - 2) Tips/gratuities 3) A flat fee paid to a bartender for services, typically, at an event (like a wedding, etc). All are absolutely, without a question, taxable income to the recepient, virtually always as wages, (and frankly hard to envision how anyone could think they may be anything else).


How much do bartenders make hourly?

The pay really depends on the house (bar). The house will usually pay a barback an hourly rate plus 10-20% of all earned tips. That depends a lot on how much total revenue the bartenders bring in. When all is said and done, the bartenders are the ones who pay out the barbacks. Usually the pay out percentage is between 15%-20% of the total tips the bartenders earn. So, for instance if the bartenders earn $200 per bartender in tips, and say, there are 6 bartenders, then you'll be paid out, let's say 15% of $1,200, which is $180. Not too bad.


Do the wage and tips have to equal minimum wage?

This differs from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.In the United States, federally, the wage and tips have to equal at least minimum wage. Your employer HAS to pay you the difference of your tips from minimum wage, if you didn't end up meeting minimum wage.Example: If minimum wage is $8.00 and after that hour, you only received $6 in tips, then your employer owes you $2.00 for that hour. This can also be figured per shift totals. Exa: $8.00/hr per 8 Hour shift = $64/shift. If you only received $50 in tips that whole shift, then your employer owes you $14 for that shift.In Ontario, Canada, tips do not count towards regular wages. Your employer must pay you at least minimum wage beforetips.
