AL non-profit UC bonds.
From $100. Enter your amount.
A 501(c)(3) employer in Alabama can elect to reimburse the unemployment fund for benefits paid, instead of paying regular contributions. When it does, the Department of Labor can require a surety bond under Code of Ala. § 25-4-51. The Department sets the amount; the price is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — the application collects no credit information, and your exact price appears at the application.

What it is and who needs it.
What the UC bond actually covers
Most Alabama employers pay quarterly unemployment contributions at an experience-rated tax rate. A 501(c)(3) non-profit has a second option under Code of Ala. § 25-4-51: it can elect to reimburse the fund dollar-for-dollar for benefits actually paid to its former employees, rather than pay contributions in advance.
Because the state is then carrying the timing risk, the Department of Labor can require a surety bond, cash deposit, or interest-bearing deposit from a reimbursing non-profit. The bond guarantees the organization will cover the benefit charges it is responsible for.
The amount is set by the Department from your taxable payroll at the rate the statute prescribes (§ 25-4-51(b)(7)), so it scales with your workforce. If a reimbursing employer fails to pay, the state recovers against the bond — and if the surety pays, the employer repays the surety. Enter the figure on your notice and we issue it — premiums are 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
