They made me sign a statement when they fired me, which I did not receive an opportunity to read, nor would they explain it to me when asked. I have known other coworkers to remain working for them with more absenteeism than my own, and I was considered an excellent employee in all of my reviews.
Also, many of my absences were due to an ongoing health problem, though I don't have documentation to that affect.
According to the Determination I received:
The claimant was discharged or suspended as a disciplinary measure by (my employter) on 1/30/2007 because of excessive absenteeism. Information has been presented showing the claimant continued to miss time in spite of warnings and that the claimant was aware that continued absences would mean loss of his/her job. The claimant's conduct was a series of repeated violations of employment rules proving that the claimant regularly and wantonly disregarded obligations to the employer.
