What is the name of your state? California
I currently work for a big Aerospace Company in So Calif. My division has been sold to United Technologies Company (UTC), but I am at a facility that will transfer to UTC about 6 to 8 months after the sale is final. I have been told that my job will most likely transfer to a location 110 miles away from my current work location (but still in California) and that I will most likely be getting a job offer at the new location. I am further being told that if I refuse the job offer at this new location, then my company and UTC will consider my refusal as "...a voluntary resignation from my current employer..." and I will not qualify for layoff benefits from either company. Is this legal?
