What is the name of your state? Utah
I worked for a company for 6 years I was the team lead of a department overseeing 12 -15 people.
Last december I went on vacation for a month (this had been approved a year in advance). The day I returned to work I was called in to the HR office and was told that after I left an employee was looking for something and was unable to find some documents so they looked in the shreader containers(shreaded weekly by an outside vendor) and found many documents that had not been processed, since thise were found they searched my desk and say they found more. and some dated back to September.
So I was let go right then because they said that I was responsable for those.
I went to the unemployment office and was given the unemployment benefits. Know the company has made an apeal and I have a hearing with a judge.
Let me say that I did not throw anything out and that I know I had no unfinished work at my desk as I was leaving for a month and would never do that.
Know I feel that I am going into this hearing without a chance as they have a legal person and hr manager and others, and I am just me.
I was never given the chance to research this or anything.
does anyone have any ideas or thoughts about this
thank you
