Rapid Response
The Rapid Response program helps workers to reestablish employment promptly following a layoff. Our Reemployment Services team works directly with employers to quickly connect workers to resources such as resume and interview preparation, Unemployment Insurance, and education and training opportunities. The program is flexible to meet the needs of each employer and their team.
Contact the Nebraska Department of Labor about utilizing Rapid Response if your company has made the decision to lay off employees or close a facility.
