Sec.  302.6  Publication requirements.



    (a) Publication of base year compensation requirement. On or before 

December 1 of each year, the Railroad Retirement Board will compute the 

amount of base year compensation that an employee must have during the 

following calendar year in order to be a qualified employee on the basis 

of such compensation. Within 10 days of such computation, the Board will 

publish a notice in the Federal Register of the amount so computed and 

will notify each employer of that amount. Information as to such 

qualifying amount may also be obtained from any district or regional 

office of the Railroad Retirement Board or from the Bureau of 

Unemployment and Sickness Insurance.

    (b) Notices. The Board will provide employers with notices of their 

employees' rights to benefits under the Railroad Unemployment Insurance 

Act. The Board will arrange with employers to post such notices in such 

numbers and in such places as may be necessary to ensure that they will 

be seen by the greatest number of employees.
