Does Marietta have its own rule?
No. O.C.G.A. § 34-8-193; Georgia DOL applies across Georgia, so a claim from Marietta is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is which workforce office you deal with in person and how busy it is — not the weekly amount or the number of weeks.
What the statute says
O.C.G.A. § 34-8-193; Georgia DOL — Georgia Department of Labor — unemployment insurance. Georgia's duration slides with the state unemployment rate — 14 weeks at current low rates, up to 26 weeks in downturns.
