What is the name of your state? new jersey
i worked with a company for over a year. once i found out i was pregnant they gave me some "paid" personal leave because i was having complications. they also lessened my responsibilities "to help me" and verbally told me that my salary would not be affected. i signed off on it with my manager and was told pay day that i would not be getting it. i fought that and 6 weeks later was paid on it with an 8,000 dollar a year salary cut since my duties had been reduced. i continuosly went to them for health benefits and was told one excuse or another. now my fiance was also laid off and decided that he would take a job down south 1 1/2 hours away and he is the one that drives me to and from work. i had told my employer that i would have to quit because i cant afford working there since i was under his health and my salary was cut by 8 grand a year and i dont have a car of my own to get me to and from work. the cost of daycare in the summer alone with me having to buy a car and commute to his house in south jersey since that is where he is moving and i live with him would be more than i would be earning so i quit my job. i was told after i left that they are going to refuse me unemployment because they think i am taking the summer off because i would make more money. well essentially i would be able to afford living with unemployment until i got another job, but there were many other things factoring my decision to leave and i stressed this to them time and time again. i felt then and feel now that i was forced out of my position because of the pregnancy and i just couldent afford working there with the pay cuts. there was another one before i left but it was across the board. would i be able to fight this and still claim unemployment?
