About Us

The WIN-202 System is a data processing system developed under a federal-state cooperative program with the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) for states to produce the Enhanced Quarterly Unemployment Insurance (EQUI) deliverable file for BLS. The system is designed to run on a local area network (LAN) and creates the deliverable file using information from the following sources:

  1. Extracts from the User State’s Unemployment Insurance Tax file
  2. Multiple Worksite Reports (MWR)
  3. Annual Refiling Survey (ARS)
  4. Missing employment notice
  5. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Center (large multi-establishment data)
  6. Touch-tone data entry refiling surveys (TDE)
  7. Estimations from the WIN-202 System

The WIN-202 system holds all the data needed to produce your deliverables, performs all edits needed to identify potential problems with the data, and estimates missing or delinquent data. The system provides easy data access and may be used in a "paperless" office environment, yet also offers analysts the ability to print reports on demand.

Click the links in the left-hand navagation pane to view the WIN-202 database screens. View the User Documentation Manual for discussion on all screens that are included in the system.

Please refer any questions about the WIN-202 system to the Maine Department of Labor. All questions about QCEW procedures may be referred to your BLS Regional or National offices.
