Generally, no.  However, I had a girlfriend who quit and won unemployment because she proved that her employer overworked her and caused her health problems.  Her proof was that it took 3 people to replace her at her job.  Do you think your employer would need to hire three people to replace you?  Otherwise, you probably don't have a leg to stand on.  Furthermore, my girlfriend didn't win right away -- had to go through appeals and it took almost a year.  Can you live a year without income to fight unemployment?  \n\nI recommend getting a new job, then quit.

Yes, however, it can come back to bite you in the butt. The Bureau of Unemployment services will grant the employee unemployment benefits even if you try to stop it. Your employee has medical documentation to back him/her up. And, if your company has a union, the employee can file a grievance, and eventually get his/her job back, most of the time with full pay for the time he/she was out of a job.

When you apply for unemployment the state will question you and the comapy on hy you were fired...a paper trail will ensue and based on all responses from your and the employer the state will make a judgement on whether you qualify for unemployment benefits...and yes it depends on which stae you live.

You are entitled to look for another job. \n\nIn just about any state, you have very few 'entitlements' when you voluntarily resign a job.

I know enough to tell you that this involuntary transfer cannot be  based on your sister's age, disability, national origin, pregnancy status, race, religion or gender. That would definitely constitute discrimination and violate federal and state labor laws.\n\nHaving said that, it isn't likely her employers are stupid enough to give any of those reasons as the basis for this transfer, even if that were true.   \n\nIf her position isn't being eliminated (ie:  they'll either have to hire someone to replace her, or transfer someone in from the other store to do her job), then she has probably guessed their reasons, although it seems unlikely that anyone could prove that.   \n\nRegardless, I would urge one of you to contact the local unemployment office immediately.  It's cheaper than contacting a lawyer - the unemployment office will certainly know all the labor laws for your state, and should be able to advise you for free whether this constitutes violation of those laws or not.  \n\nIf her employers are in violation, then the unemployment office will recognize that immediately and should be able to advise you how to proceed.  \n\nRemember, they don't want your sister unemployed any more than she wants to be.  Their job is to keep qualified people working and avoid paying those federal unemployment benefits.  If her employer is in violation, they'll be the very first to admit it to you.\n\nYou might as well contact them anyway - if she doesn't have transporation and is forced to resign, she will have to know whether she would be eligible for unemployment or not.  That information alone may help each of you decide how to best proceed here....whether it's worth a battle or not.\n\nGood luck!  I think most people would naturally be on your side!

contact your state wage and hour with proof that you are working overtime and not getting paid for it. Ask them to sue for you to get your back pay. If you quit a job you do not get unemployment. You probably need to find another job. Put together a resume saying you are looking for the current job you are doing, look up the competitors in the yellow pages and call them and fax over your resume.

Call your state unemployment office and ask how to file. Chances are you will have to personally show up so they an get a look at you at least the 1st time.

Yes you can.  In most states, there are loopholes in the unemployment system to help you overrule a disqualification (quitting, being fired, etc.).  Depending on the political party which is in charge in your state, this information may or may not be available through the Department of Labor or in the unemployment compensation handbook which you are given. \n  As an example, in Pennsylvania, the historical trend of helping your family or neighbors do work actually can help you over rule a disqualification.  There is a six times rule where if you you earn 6X your weekly benefit through doing casual employment (painting, lawnwork, roofing, etc.) you can overrule your disqualification.\n  As to medical conditions and the like, many businesses will fight your unemployment in order to keep their unemployment taxes down.  While you may be entitled to the benefits, your former employer may still challenge your claim and force you to go to an unemployment compensation referee hearing.  In that case, you may want to call Legal Services for advice on how to handle the situation.\n  Again, the process of overuling a disqualification is different in every state.  If you can't find your states specific information, try calling your state legislator.  As to calling the unemployment office, you may run into troubles because they may need you to open a claim in order to find out the information.

Yes, unless the unemployment office has added an endorsement on the envelope that says they do not want it forwarded. Some states allow them to be forwarded, others do not.

It really depends on the state that you're in and individual circumstances.  You should go to your state's employment department website.\n\nSpeaking for California, I know it matters how long you were employed, if you were fired or laid off.  There are limits as to how long you can collect unemployment.\n\nAgain, your best source will be your state's employment department website.

It is better to be laid off. You'll get a severance package, and more than likley be eligible for other benefits you won't have if you resigned.

Contact the Indiana Employment Commission, get routed to the unemployment area and find out their answer. I'm pretty sure you cannot receive unemployment through them, anymore...

I'm from California so it maybe a bit different.  I got laid off a few months ago and I claimed unemployment.  Just go to your Government website (www.MI.gov) and fill out the claim. You should be good to go.  Good Luck

The only way to tell for sure is to contact the Ohio unemployment office. Check their web site, I included a link below try looking there.

they can't fire you for an on the job injury regardless of how long you have been there, not only would you get unemployment if they did, but you would have a very strong case for a wrongfull termination lawsuit, in addition you sould seek punitive damages for the injury itself.
