Unemployment appeal

[mdowney80]

What is the name of your state? Kentucky
I was fired from my job for missing to many days. In our employee handbook it states that on the 4th absence you receive a verbal warning, 5th written, 6th suspension for 3 days and 7th termination. I may have missed more than the allowed days because im not really sure but I was only givin one verbal warning then about two weeks later i was fired with no other warnings. I know Kentucky is an at-will state so I don't have a case in court and my unemployment was denied but if I appeal the unemployment on the basis that I wasn't givin the warnings I was suppose to do you think I will win?

I wouldn't be optimistic. Despite the fact that you did not get the warnings as detailed in the employee handbook, you obviously knew about them, as you can quote to us here the progressive discipline steps. You can file, it doesn't cost you anything but a little time, but, if I were the employer, I would protest.
