If your Employer does not make contributions to the NYCDCC Benefit Funds for hours you have worked in Covered Employment, you should file a Benefit Shortages Report.  You must include copies of pay stubs for the payroll weeks at issue with the shortage report.  Please retain a copy of the form and the pay stubs for your own records.
