What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL
Okay, looks like my first thread ended for some reason, so I will continue here. Went to the unemployment office on Monday. It's true that I may be denied unemployment, because I wasn't at the last job long enough before they terminated me and the company I left previously, I left willingly.
If the company I left willingly does have to pay, it doesn't seem right. I answered all questions truthfully on the form, but it seemed like the questions were leading to 'are you sure you quit and weren't terminated', as the form asked questions like 'Did you give notice', 'did you finish out notice period', 'did you submit letter stating you were leaving', etc.
Anyway, now my focus is on the company that let me go. Even though Illinois is an 'at will' state, there are a couple of situations where you could have a wrongful termination case when they cut you.
I sent an email to hr on Monday, stating I want all personnel records - and now I am taking the next step. My question is: IF the company has an employment handbook or company policy list, does HR have to provide me with it if I request it??
