What is the name of your state? Ohio
I was terminated after 4.5 years of a salaried position, with no reason given. I worked for an "at will" employer. They are refusing to pay me for the last week I was employed, and they canceled my health insurance effective 4/30/05 when I was terminated 5/2/05, AND they take out a month premimum in advance. I also just found out that they have not contibuted all of my 401K withholdings to my account. (There is no comp. match... 100% employee contribution). The company filed for chapter 11 BK prior to letting me go. What type of recourse do I have as far as getting my pay, insurance, and 401K premiums? Or is the company protected by the BK and am I just going to become a write off? And are they able to include employees in the BK, ecspecially after they already filed? Please give any advise you can! Thanks!!!
