You can draw unemployment benefits if you were fired or laid off.
In this kind of economy, you are screwed...
No. Once you are fired your employment is terminated.
Being fired is a civil or employment matter. Theft is a criminal matter. One does not affect the other.
You have to be paid your final check within two weeks of you being fired. They cannot hold your check for any reason.
Receiving WC benefits provides zero protection against being laid off or even being fired for misconduct or poor performance. The only protection is against being fired or harmed for claiming WC.
Some people have employment contracts, as do all union employees. Those contracts spell out the grounds for being fired. Most people do not have employment contracts and are "at will" employees. They can be fired for any reason, except for reasons that are against the law such as raising a safety concern.
The company that fired you will have the information. After a few years, they store your employment record on computer disk or destroy it. The only other people who will know you were fired are future employers (who check your previous jobs) or people you tell.
Not really. A potential employer can easily check to see why you left your previous place of employment. If they see that you've lied, they'll find you untrustworthy and probably not hire you. Honesty is still the best policy.
