A separation occurs in the current quarter of the QWI system when it encounters no valid UI wage record for an individual-employer pair in the subsequent quarter. This definition of separation can be interpreted as an estimate of the number of employees who left the employer during the current quarter. These individuals received UI-covered earnings during the current quarter but did not receive any UI-covered earnings in the next quarter from this employer. Separations are not defined for the last quarter of available data.
