denied unemployment

[bonehead11]

the idea of a labor contract is that I agree to do my part i.e. work and in return the enployer agrees to certain wages and benefits called a wage and benefit package to be payed to me at his expense. this was they verbal contract he entered with me and failed to keep.not to mention stealing money from my pay check!
You call it complaining are you an employer attorney too? a young rebublican?a boss? what do you know about labor relations?anything?

I know quite a lot about it, actually, and one thing I know is that it is very rare for health insurance benefits to be provided at no cost to the employee. If that is your expectation, you've got quite a surprise coming to you.

Do you have something IN WRITING that says he will foot the entire cost of benefits?

actually, she knows a huge amount.

The other thing that we expect from posters, aside from the necessary information, is a modicum of manners and politeness to those who are attemptting to help you.

It appears that you and your employer have a miscommunication over what "provide benefits" means. You understood that to mean that he would actually PAY for those benefits, that is NOT what the definition of provide means in this case. The benefits were provided, but at a cost to you.

You should apologize to cbg. She is the BEST qualified person to help you with your issue.

well, so much for defending you. ROTFL

We were posting at the same time. But thanks for the backup.

OP is not disputing that he should pay for the benefits. OP is saying that he was paying for benefits for 3 months before he actually received benefits.

With that said, that's a simple matter that can be resolved WITHOUT quitting. Your denial of unemployment benefits seems correct. You could, and should have sought other means of correcting the oversight.


EDIT: I could be TOTALLY wrong about OP's problem - anyone is welcome to tell me

I can see where what he posted could be interpreted that way. That is not how I read it.

Guess we have to wait for him to come back, calm down and post exactly what his issue is.

I am not a young or any other type of republican.

Acceptable reasons to quit and still be eligible for UC would be if you were experiencing ILLEGAL harassment due to your race, religion, or other protected characteristic, or some other type of illegal discrimination. Your situation would not quaify. There is no such thing as a "verbal contract" in employment law, all employees are presumed to be "at will" unless there is a WRITTEN contract in place. And how much attention were you paying to not realize money was being deducted from your check for TWO MONTHS?

You have no case for unemployment. You'd better find another job quickly.

my verbal agreement was:he would provide benefits at his cost. when I approached him about it he agreed to refurn the money and left my wife without benefits.2 weeks later after completing a must win contract for the employer successfully.He conjured up some bull**** arguement about a time card but couldn't name dates or times,while argueing the point I quit. my case is that this was the last straw,how many lies and how much cheating is too much.and that in any case he failed repeatedly to meet his contract with me why am I still held to "just cause"
who does he answer to?If you work for a scum bag aren't you free to quit at any time with an expectation of unemployment benefit?at least I would hope so ,but apparently not
It seems to me that overall I kept "saving"my job:first over my own benefits(and I am 58 not in perfect health and benefits meant a lot) and then stealing money and then my wife's benefits,yet I might have stayed if he had covered half her benefit,but I was making all the concessions,when is enuogh enough?
lastly I asked for advise do not condesend to help me either help or don't

 

[ecmst12]

aren't you free to quit at any time

Yes

with an expectation of unemployment benefit?

No. Unemployment benefits are for people who lose their job due to no fault of their own. If you voluntarily walk away from a job, that's your CHOICE, and UC is not for you.

Isn't that what you're fighting for? To be taken care of?
