About Division Of Employment Security

The Division Of Employment Security (DES), a U.S. state government entity headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, is the recipient of federal formula and project grants from the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) to administer North Carolina's unemployment insurance and workforce reemployment programs. DES operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) with no federal contract prime awardee activity or subcontract engagement, and does not compete for work under set-aside programs.

DES's federal grant portfolio centers on unemployment insurance (UI) program administration, reemployment services, and trade adjustment assistance. The core work includes administering North Carolina's UI claims processing, eligibility determinations, claimant system operations, staffing, and fraud detection—funded by an ETA formula grant of $59.6 million running October 1, 2025 through December 31, 2028 (CFDA 17.225). DES also operates the Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment (RESEA) program, which provides evidence-based reemployment services to UI benefit recipients to accelerate return to work and strengthen program integrity. Additional grant work includes administering Trade Readjustment Allowances (TRA), Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA), and Reemployment Trade Adjustment Assistance (RTAA) benefits for workers displaced by foreign trade imports; delivering Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA) benefits to individuals unemployed due to presidentially declared disasters; and implementing unemployment compensation fraud prevention, identity verification, and overpayment recovery initiatives funded through American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) supplemental grants.

Customer concentration is extreme and agency-specific. The Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration accounts for 65 of 82 total awards (79% by count), with the remaining activity split among the Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service (6 awards), the Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics (4 awards), and smaller sub-agency engagement. The Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Cincinnati holds the single largest potential-value award at $50 thousand. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $2.67 billion against a reported combined potential value of $50 thousand, reflecting the formula-grant nature of DES's funding wherein actual quarterly or annual disbursements significantly exceed stated potential-value ceilings because funds are fully obligated and drawn for program administration and benefit payments rather than capped task-order arrangements.

Award frequency has declined in recent years—five awards in 2021 declining to two awards in 2025—with four awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. DES does not pursue federal contracts or subcontracting relationships; its federal presence is entirely dependent on continued ETA appropriations for state workforce administration under the Unemployment Insurance Program, RESEA, and related statutory programs.
