<div>I’m concerned about the statement, “Unfortunately, the 300 caddies at Bandon Dunes are considered independent contractors and are not eligible for most of these programs.” That is simply not accurate. ICs are eligible for expanded UI, and for both of the
primary federal relief programs. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">That said, those programs don’t normally support independent contractors so there’s some work remaining (particularly with UI) to adapt them for ICs. Making the issue even more frustrating are the politicians that are telling everyone the funds
are available and they’ll see the dollars immediately. But the programs have all been handed to the states or banks to actually deploy. At least in our region, our bakers and local governments are working their tails off and going above and beyond to get these
funds on the ground ASAP. Just today, however, a state legislator informed locals that the UI component will be ready by the end of this week. According to the employment department, it will likely be next week before rhere is a reliable way for ICs to file
a UI claim.</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">If you’re hearing that folks aren’t eligible for these programs, you’re getting bad information. If you’re hearing that it’s taking a long time to deploy the programs, I won’t disagree with that, and kudos to you all for finding a way to help
in the interim!</div>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Hi Harv – It sounds like a great effort to support the caddies! I would also double check on unemployment benefits for the caddies if they are independent contractors. It is my understanding that while independent contractors aren’t normally
eligible for benefits, the rules have been relaxed so that independent contractors and gig workers are eligible. See

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">The one new initiative that GBA will be launching on Monday is a Caddie Relief Fund. Many of you know that Bandon Dunes Golf Resort is closed for the duration of the virus. A lot of their employees
are eligible for unemployment and other benefits that are being made available during this crisis. Unfortunately, the 300 caddies at Bandon Dunes are considered independent contractors and are not eligible for most of these programs. And they have no tips
from golfers coming in at the moment either, a big part of their income as well. Bandon Dunes is by far the largest employer in our area and it is essential that they be able to retain as many of these caddies as possible. We are going nationwide effort with
this with the help of some of the marketing staff at the Dunes to secure some help for these people so they can pay their rent, purchase their food and take care of other necessities. In turn, its putting some money, most likely money from outside of Oregon, back
into our economy.</span></p>
