The National Association of State Workforce Agencies (NASWA) has recognized Experian with its Outstanding Performance Award for the third straight year. The award, presented at NASWA’s annual UI SIDES Seminar in Denver, Colorado, highlights Experian’s work combating fraud and supporting unemployment insurance (UI) program integrity through the State Information Data Exchange System (SIDES).
About the Award
NASWA presented the honor in recognition of Experian’s use of SIDES, a web-based platform that helps employers reduce administrative burden, manage unemployment claims, and mitigate fraud risk. SIDES is a core component of Experian’s broader unemployment management solution.
“Helping employers navigate complexities of unemployment insurance while strengthening fraud prevention remains a focus for Experian,” said Steve Solovic, senior vice president of operations for Experian Employer Services. “Being recognized by NASWA for a third consecutive year highlights our commitment to delivering solutions that improve efficiency, decision making and compliance for both employers and state agencies.”
Experian at the UI SIDES Seminar
Each year, the UI SIDES Seminar draws hundreds of state workforce representatives, employers, and third-party administrators to discuss emerging trends and challenges in unemployment insurance. At this year’s event, Solovic moderated several panel discussions, including a state of the states plenary session and a session titled “Protecting the Path: Fraud Detection with SIDES.”
Other Experian Employer Services leaders also participated. Michael Orton, managing director of payroll tax consulting, and Rebecca Mills, senior director of tax operations, both presented on the Top 10 Employer Tax Issues. Tonya VanKnowe, senior director of unemployment management, led a session titled “Elevating the UI Experience.”
