Minnesota Administrative Rules
3310.2911 INTERPRETERS.
The department must provide an interpreter, when necessary, upon the request of a party. The requesting party must notify the appeals office at least seven calendar days before the date of the hearing that an interpreter is required. If no request is made, the unemployment law judge must continue any hearing where a witness or principal party in interest is a disabled person so that an interpreter can be appointed. All notices and other documents distributed to parties and witnesses by the appeals office must be prepared in easily understood English.
A written statement in English, Spanish, Laotian, Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Hmong which states that the accompanying documents are important, and that if the reader does not understand the documents, the reader should seek immediate assistance, must accompany all notices and written documents distributed by the appeals office to the party whenever the office has reason to believe the primary language of the party is one of those previously listed other than English.
