What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? pa
A few days ago I was asking questions as an employer who let an employee go based on phone calls (and suspicion of taking copper from job sites). For some reason my original posting dropped off but I do have an update. We took all the evidence we have received so far (and it was mounting) to him for one last opportunity to explain himself (we didn't tell him we were going to the police but that was our next step) and he confessed. He saw the writing on the wall as far as our evidence and our evidence reached back to a previous employer and he could sense having big problems if the police become involved. He is going to be signing a letter of restitution and admitting what he had done and write our company out a check for an agreed to amount between us and him....Now my question is about unemployement.....we have to return the UC form today and originally we were going to write misconduct and use the cell phone while working issue but now that this has changed and we will have a letter of restitution, would we use that? We really would like to keep the confession out of it because we are not going to the police but we do not want to pay his unemployement. Or since it is Christmas and he has a family and he did confess, and we choose unwillingly to be nice and say lack of work, does that affect his confession in any way? Thanks so much for your help...
