As Hurricane Milton approaches and the effects of Hurricane Helene continue to unfold, our thoughts are with everyone impacted both directly and indirectly. Natural disasters of this magnitude can cause immense disruption, stress, and anxiety. During these challenging times, please know that your safety and well-being are Kelly’s top priorities.

We want to ensure that everyone receives all the support they need.

Find Wifi hotspots

Comcast has opened 52,296 public Xfinity WiFi hotspots in both indoor and outdoor areas for anyone to use for free in 21 counties affected by Helene. Search by your ZIP code or visit Finder.wifi.xfinity.com.

Unemployment information/instructions

Here are some links (Federal and State) where employees can find information about unemployment and disaster claim filings. States will continue to update their sites as disaster areas get federal approval.

As stated, employees will have to file for regular unemployment benefits first. The state will determine if they meet the monetary requirements to establish a regular claim. If they don’t qualify for regular benefits and were unemployed due to the disaster, they can file a disaster claim once the state is approved for federal disaster unemployment assistance.
