According to the Employment Development Department, you are only eligible for unemployment if you are unemployed "through no fault of your own." Being on strike is considered a "fault of your own" in most cases even if you personally voted against the strike.

However, you should file for unemployment benefits - or contact the unemployment agency - anyway as they will review each case individually. There is no downside to filing unemployment (do know that they will notify your employer) and the worst that can happen is that they will say "no"!

Can you do picket duty and collect strike pay and work at another job?

It depends on the rules and regulations of the union you are a part of. Some unions may allow members to collect strike pay while working another job, but typically picketing duty is considered a full-time commitment during a strike. It's important to check with your union representative for guidance in this situation.
