Question

I just quit my job. There were problems with the boss. He wasn't treating me well and did not supply tools needed for the job. At times a felt belittled. Can I collect because I quit? Will I get penalize for quitting?

Answer 1

You have to have valid reasons for quiting. A lot depends on the person you talk to at the employment office. Give it a go and see how it works for you. You may but it will not be a sure thing. You pay for the benefits yourself. It is listed on most pay stubs. If you haven't paid for very long then that may disqualify you. You are paid according to how long you have been working. Some jobs are seasonal and do pay each time you are off but the payment you make is much larger as well. As they say if you want to know then ask. Go and apply.

Answer 2

no you must have solid solidd reasons for justwalking away from a pacheck the rules have changedd the same thing if you were fired you will, get nothing from unemlpoyment, if they had reasons lets say for firring you damn good reasons such as stealing even sexaul harassement is in there rules now in some places when they hire you you are tiold no sexaul harrassement and sighn a consent form that goes in to employees files etc! and if the job you had was too supply your own tools, and, you knew this as a pre condutionn when they hired you thats your fault not yours that was your soul reponsiblity not theres, okasy you had problems with the bos who dosent you were making a pay check should have realizeed that much!! and god luck if you quiit runing too unemployment it dosent sound like you got much of a claim that boos of yours wil fight your employment(un) and you wil or may not get nothing!! it al epends it sounds like they wont pay you>

Answer 3

Firstly, the Government collects taxes from the people and
companies engaged in doing businesses. With the tax money,
the Government distributes accordingly to various govt.
agencies such as unemployment agency which handles
unemployment problem. However, your case is referred to
this agency which will check and assess whether you deserve
the money for being unemployed.
Since you resigned from your job on your own free will, you
stand no chance of collecting unemployment money.
My advice to you is go and find another similar job quickly before
you ran out of money to support yourself and family.

Answer 4

The government collects unemployment taxes from the employers. The tax goes up a bit if the employer has employees on unemployment benefits.

Answer 5

You generally cannot collect unemployment if you quit of your own accord; however you can still apply and let him choose to deny or grant it. If he wants to deny it, you can appeal the decision. Sometimes, a employer doesn't want the hassle and will just let it slide. So go ahead and apply; the worst that can happen is a denial.

Answer 6

No you cannot collect from the unemployment 'trust' fund your employer supports through payroll fees--because you quit. Then again the reasons you quit ought to be examined. There are attorneys offering free consultations---call one.

Answer 7

generally you can't collect if you say you were fired, or you quit.

however, if you just say you were laid off (which is believable given out bad economy), then it's ok. the unemployment office typically has to verify with your employer on why you were unemployed, but in most cases they even don't bother with it and hand you your check.

Answer 8

The money comes from regular people, like me. It doesn't materialize overnight in a safe.

Answer 9

no you can not collect. Companies pay unemployment taxes which are used to pay unemployed people.

Answer 10

the money comes from a fund that all workers pay into
at least here
quiting does make it harder
