What is the name of your state? NY
My wife was told (March 20th) that she was being laid off starting that day and would have to take time unpaid or use vacation/sick time. She was told (verbal) that they were hoping it would be for 3 weeks.
She decided to use her vacation and sick time until the new bill was passed increasing unemployment benifits. She called her employer today to get some sort of documentation stating that she was being laid off due to covid-19(she still has not received any documentation)Her employer promptly corrected her and stated that she was being furloughed and will be expected to return at some point.
Does she have any say in when she is expected to return?
Her contract states that neither herself or her employer can terminate employment unless 60 days notice has been given. Does this mean she can actively search for, and take other employment opportunities?
Thank you for any advice
