Can one collect unemployment insurance when the employer changes work shift to one that you can not work?
It depends on the State laws regarding unemployment. If they change your schedule to a schedule that is not customarily worked in your field, then you may have a claim. However, if you refuse to work that schedule and file for unemployment they can deny you based on your availability. For example, if you are a Cocktail Waitress and you work the day shift and they switch you to the night shift, then this is a shift that a normal Cocktail Waitress can work. If you quit, then unemployment will say, "hmmm...you are a Cocktail Waitress & cannot work this schedule...DENIED." However, if you are an 8-5 Office Worker and your employer decides that they want to change your schedule to the night shift, then you could possibly win this claim because the hours are not customary to a normal office workers schedule.
