re: #164 publicityStunted
But wouldn’t unemployment benefits be issued through the state you live in? Why on earth would your HR dept fight that?? Or am I misunderstanding and you’re talking about severance pay? Either way, they sound like malicious, mean-spirited douchebags :( So sorry you have to put up with this.
Because in most states, half of the unemployment benefits is paid by the employer who fired you, it it is discovered that you were fired without cause.
Other wise, you cannot collected unemployment for being fired with cause, at least not in Colorado.
