My wife took maternity leave at the beginning of August. She was paid six weeks short term disabilty. She wanted to take extra time ( of course non-paid ) and her employer agreed verbally.
She was to go back to work at the begining of January. When she called to speak to her boss she was informed her position had been filled. She was told she could possibly work per-diem if she wanted to.
Her employer said they would fight against paying her unemployment, because according to her boss she hasn't been employed there for "awhile". My wife was never informed she was terminated. In fact, she received her Christmas bonus check at the company holiday party in early December, and her company has been providing her health insurace coverage all along. In fact, just last week she received a letter from her health plan thanking her for continuing her coverage with them.
Doesn't this constitute employment?
Also, if she did go back per-diem, I'm assuming she could not file, is that true?
Thanks everyone.
