PO Hours: 968 The Business Analyst (BA) serves as a business process and IT system functionality expert for a highly complex IT system and a liaison between business users and the IT staff performing system coding. The Business Analyst is responsible for planning, managing and leading the overall significant enhancement or development of a major IT system to deliver an important Commonwealth service, as well as, evaluating the effectiveness of a project or a contract to ensure goals, objectives, or terms are met and conducting research on business software solutions. Additionally, the BA is responsible for the set of tasks and techniques used to work as a liaison among stakeholders in order to understand the structure, policies, and operations of an organization, and to recommend solutions that enable the organization to achieve its goals. Project Description: This business analyst position will be working on three separate and distinct Unemployment Compensation (UC) projects. Each project is described below: Shared Work Project– Pennsylvania's Shared-Work Program allows an employer to temporarily reduce the work hours of a group of employees as an alternative to a lay-off. Employees covered by the plan receive a percentage of their UC Weekly Benefit Amount, or WBA, while they work the reduced schedule, if they are otherwise eligible for UC. This project will look to implement the following three aspects of Pennsylvania’s Shared Work Program: 1. Online filing, by employers, of their plans online to participate in the Shared Work program 2. Online filing initial claims by claimants 3. Online filing of continued claims by claimants Department of Health Cross Match Project – The purpose of project is to further automate the mostly manual PA Department of Health Crossmatch which performs a monthly comparison of the Unemployment Compensation check writing system’s files against a decedent file provided by DOH. Project implementation will allow the Department’s legacy mainframe benefits system to place a stop on the claims record automatically when a match occurs, preventing further improper payments whenever an individual files for benefits on the decedent’s claim. Reports will be generated that will differentiate the overpayments into separate categories and identify weeks that are pending or were paid after the claimant’s death, providing more detailed data for management. Quarterly Wage Cross Match Project – In 1975, US Department of Labor implemented the quarterly wage cross-match which mandated states to conduct random audits of wages compared to weeks of benefits paid to determine improper payments. The PA Department of Labor and Industry’s quarterly wage cross-match process has been in production for 10+ years with little to no updates or upgrades. Documentation for the formula and process in the legacy system is nonexistent with all knowledge based resources long since retired. This purpose of this project is to increase Pennsylvania’s detection and recoupment of improper unemployment compensation payments through the improvement of the quarterly wage cross-match process. Documentation of the “as-is” process, analysis of existing components, and the utilization of existing technology to improve the current process is essential. The existing cross-match will be enhanced through this project to include the following functionality: 1. Track employer responses in order to send additional requests to non-responsive employers 2. Track work flow on identified issues 3. Ensure more adequate statistics are provided for mandated reporting 4. Create forms to be more employer friendly 5. Automate processes to increase productivity This project will involve a coordinated effort of both UC program area staff in the Office of Unemployment Compensation Benefits Policy (OUCBP) and staff from the Office of Information Technology (OIT).
