Unemployment Insurance Rates.
 
North Carolina ranks among the top states in the U.S. for the fiscal soundness of its unemployment insurance program, and has one of the lowest minimum unemployment insurance tax rates in the nation.
     
  Under the state's experience rating system, reductions of the standard tax rate are permitted as an incentive to employers who provide steady work for their employees. An employer's experience rating is based on the relationship between the contributions credited to the employer's account and the benefits charged against it. Tax rates have been reduced under all of the rate schedules for employers who maintain a positive balance.
