What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Indiana
I work for a temp agency. They had me on a 90 day temp-to-hire assignment. I lasted six weeks before the contracted company fired me. I understand I was at-will, but the circumstances are as follows: In staff meetings, we were all told that there was a disciplinary process for firing people. Me, and the other five people from the temp agency that they fired, never went through this process. I was fired on the spot for something that I was taught to do in training, and for the way I handled a situation (which is the way a supervisor told me to handle it). The temp agency I work for is upset, because only my particular location seems to be having problems with keeping temps and they think the manager is the issue (I would definitely agree! She is a bully and has fired 8 people and three have quit in the six weeks I was there). They are considering dropping them as a contract... but that is aside from my question, how do I best make an argument to get unemployment? I was fired before my contract was over, and for arguably unjust reasons. I am still on board with the temp agency, but they do not have any assignments for me at this time.
Thanks for your input!
