- This is Canadian Law: An employer cannot fire an employee if they are ill and when that employee returns to work they can change jobs in the company where they can cope. If you quit a job then the employer has no responsibility towards that employee.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on many factors and state laws. Generally when you quit or get fired there is an adjudication hearing and you are able to tell your side of the story. Usually if you quit due to a medical condition and you have documentation from a Doctor stating that they advised you to quit your job, you will be granted unemployment. If you quit for a medical condition that prevents you from working, then you will probably be denied because you are "unable to work." To be eligible for benefits one must be "able and available to seek and accept IMMEDIATE full time work."

Can your job fire you for falsification on unemployment?
This is difficult to answer, because a future employer would not have access to confidential information in unemployment files. That information is between the agency, the claimant and the employer claimed against.
How do you access your unemployment records?
Because unemployment records are confidential, and available to only the claimant and the employer claimed against, you have to contact your state's unemployment office for the information.
If your husband has orders to New York and you leave your job in Louisiana can you get unemployment and if yes would you apply with New York or Louisiana?
Based on the information on page 5, ii, of the Related Link below, your concern seems to be one of the exceptions on quitting that is allowed. To be safe, check with the unemployment office in your state to verify it, though. Because Louisiana is the "liable state" (the one your employer paid his unemployment taxes to) it would be the state to file in.
Can you claim unemployment benefits when you lost job because of disciplinary action?
This would depend on the basis for the disciplinary action. Under your own state's unemployment security laws the employer is allowed to discharge a worker for a variety of reasons. If those reasons are allowed and proved by the employer, the unemployment office would find for the employer and you would not collect.
How do you access your records?
Because unemployment records are confidential, and available to only the claimant and the employer claimed against, you have to contact your state's unemployment office for the information.

Because the information gathered from the employer and claimant by the state's investigator regarding unemployment is confidential, you'd have to ask the claimant himself.
Would your previous employer be contacted if i were to apply for unemployment benefits as being my job terminated by them?
It depends on the specific requirements and procedures of your state's unemployment agency. In some cases, your previous employer may be contacted to verify the reason for your job termination. However, this can vary, and it's best to consult with your state's unemployment office for accurate information.
If you hurt yourself on the job and the employer can't find you enough work can you collect unemployment?
In most states, depending on the seriousness of your injury, you might qualify for Workers Compensation. If not, then your reduction in hours usually qualifies you for unemployment benefits. Because both situations vary from state to state, you need to contact your state's unemployment office for clarification.
Will you get full unemployment benefits if your employer closes business?
No you cannot. Just because its tht the law bill of rights.

Under the Interstate Unemployment Agreement provisions you could file in either, but preferably in New York since it is the "liable state" which collected the unemployment taxes from your employer.
