In this situation, no. You still have a job just because they change your hours.
In some cases, yes. Many states permit workers to collect unemployment if they quit for "due cause." An extreme change in working conditions, duties, hours or pay would normally be considered "due cause." The company may also be required to make reasonable accommodations for your physical limitations under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Were you fired? That's the only way to collect unemployment.
No, you cannot collect unemployment since you are still employed, even if you have lost work hours.
No, it is not hard. The Related Link below refers to partial benefits due to reduced earnings, etc.
No. In order to collect unemployment you have to be available, able and willing to work. Restricting yourself to weekends is not considered available,
Your benefits will be impacted more by how much you earn than by how many hours you work. I would guess, even at minimum wage, you would not be eligible for unemployment insurance benefits while working 30 hours per week.
If I work a part-time perdiem job doing home healthcare and the client I have been assigned to has stopped services, am I eligible to collect unemployment
Yes. With part-time employment, collecting unemployment depends on the amount of gross you make. As long as your weekly gross is not more than your weekly unemployment benefit, you will still receive your weekly unemployment, minus your gross reported.
Yes, you can see page 3 in the Related Link below for more information.
Unemployment benefits are ste by the state in which you live in. Generally, for a person to collect unemployment benefits, first, the company has to pay into the unemployment fund of that particular state, then he / she would have to be laid off by a company downsizing or unfairly dismissed by their supervisor, boss, what have you. If the employee was in any responsible for his / her dismissal, i.e., theft, absentism, unsatisfactory job performance, etc, you are not getting it. A 2 day a week job, presumably 16 hours a week is a part time job and carries few benefits, i.e., vacation time, medical, sick time, etc. It would be rare indeed for an employer to offer unemployment benefits to a part time worker. Of course, it may be you work for "a horse of a different color."
Generally, Yes. It depends on the individual state as to criteria, such as the number of base weeks worked, the total wages earned in that period, etc. Check the Related Link below for your state and its requirements.
