What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? COLORADO
I was hired on as a customer service representative with a company part-time. This October, I would be working with them for a year. Since my being hired, I went from working 4 days a week part-time (avg. 10-20 hrs/wk) to all of my scheduled shifts had been taken away from me (including the one full-time shift I had) and replaced with this on-call, non-scheduled "schedule" setup for me to work only on Saturdays...if they need me. I havent heard anything from my employer regarding work this week and I feel like this is their way of getting out of the door without having to pay me unemployment by firing me.
My question is, could I file for unemployment? If they stop placing me on the schedule or calling me for work isn't it essentially a lay-off??
