Located in Iowa.
I was terminated from my position due to making a clerical error. When the error was brought to my attention I personally went to my supervisor and asked if anything I can do to resolve issue or how will be handled. I was informed for the next 7 days after reaching out to my supervisor daily that it was unknown to her what outcome will be and that again there was nothing I can do but wait and continue to report to work. I continued to work at my same position doing same duties until the end of 7 day was informed I was being terminated. This was about 4 weeks ago and today I received a notice that my previous employer is contesting my benefits. The employee handbook clearly states I was involuntarily terminated in this situation. Would unemployment rule in my favor to continue benefits while I search for a new position?
