Mainers who have found themselves without work during the coronavirus pandemic must now show the state they are actively looking for a job to continue receiving jobless benefits. That announcement comes as nearly 80,000 Mainers remain jobless amid an unprecedented economic crisis sparked by the pandemic. But not all out-of-work Mainers will need to comply with that requirement. “While our economy continues to gradually reopen and more people are now able to return to work, we know that many families are still grappling with the unique economic hardships caused by COVID-19,” Maine’s labor commissioner, Laura Fortman, said in a Friday statement.
