Unemployment is funded by a tax on employers, not employees.
That's not how tax incidence works. A tax is applied to the transaction, and its burden depends on who has more bargaining power, not on who writes the check.
It's called FUTA. Look it up. Also, there's likely a state equivalent wherever you reside.
There is no act that changes how tax incidence works.
