An employer's payroll is what the state determines how much his premiums will be (along with experience factors, etc.), for his payroll taxes. If the state finds the employer is in non-compliance with their requirements they will come down hard on the employer.

Typically, unemployment benefits only apply to those who have been working full time and they're employer has been paying for their unemployment. I've never heard of someone getting unemployment benefits after only working part time for a short period of time. I'm sorry to break the bad news.

Does an employer have to pay you for a disciplinary meeting?

An employer has to pay for the time spent by employees at any mandatory meeting. Whenever an employer is making use of your time, you are entitled to be paid for your time. To any employer who does not like the idea of paying an employee to attend a disciplinary meeting, my suggestion would be to keep the meeting short. It does not necessarily require a lengthy meeting to discipline people.


Are you required to pay for health insurance while on short term disability?

That depends upon whether you are covered under FMLA, and the percentage of premium paid by your employer. If you are covered under FMLA, then your employer is required to continue coverage on the same basis as before your leave. For example if your employer was paying half the premium and you were paying half the premium, this arrangement would continue while you are on leave. You would be responsible for continuing these payments. If your employer pays 100% of the premium you would have no payments to make. If you are not covered under FMLA your employer is free to ask you to pay 100% of the premium.

Can your employer cancel your health insurance when you are on short term or long term disability because you did not make a payment on your insurance like is normally done through your paycheck?

Your employer's obligation to pay premiums normally stops when your paycheck does, that is, when your medical and personal leave is exhausted, and there is nothing left to deduct the premiums with. When that happens, the insurance company, not your employer, cancels your health insurance for lack of premiums. There are many ways to avoid this tragedy, including donation of leave by co-workers, if permitted, to keep the paychecks coming, or employer paying premiums for you until you are able to return to work. Good luck. JJ
