If you fail the pee test, can the employer fight your unemployment bennifets?

Yes!  You were fired for "Just cause".

no, not unless it was a very sensitive test. I worked there during the holidays for extra income and had to take the test too. I also use listerine and I didnt fail. Tests do come back wrong my dear so I suggest seeing if you can get a retake.

It depends on the reason.. \nIf you stole from the company, most likely you will not get unemployment.... \nIf you missed a lot of work.. IT depends on your reason for missing work.. they will investigate that.. \nIf you made a few mistakes.. most likely you will get unemployment, because mistakes are mistakes, everyone makes them..\nIf you sexually harassed someone.. there will be an investigation.. \nreally all depends on what you did.

Read your question and I'm not sure why they said you would fail. Those tests done have detectable limits they go by and it takes a bit of use for it to show up. A couple puffs probably wouldn't even show up in a urine test.\n\nEDIT\nMy guess is they just don't know. People go off "myths" and hearsay with stuff like that. Sort of like all the remedies they have to pass drug tests.\n\nGood Luck

No way don't sign anything. since you did quit you might not be able to collect unemployment. \nIf you said they fired you then you would be able to. They have no right to hold your check. here in AZ the last check has to be issued with in 48 hours regardless if you quit or were fired.\ngood luck

Yes, unless the unemployment office has added an endorsement on the envelope that says they do not want it forwarded. Some states allow them to be forwarded, others do not.

Sorry but no. You can only receive unemployment benefits if you are/were able ready and willing to work.

It depends on the laws of the state you live in, the reasons you were discharged, and your former employers history.\nI live in GA. It is my practice to challenge every claim for unemployment. The overall rate I pay for workers compensation is based on the number of claims for unemployment that are made against me. \nCan you still aquire a clearence? Do you mean a security clearence? If you were discharged for being late, not likely. If you were discharged for smoking pot on company property, than yes. The results of some states unemployment claims hearing are treated the same as a court case and are a matter of public record. Some states it is nothing but a private insurance claim.

unless your being harrassed or something like that you can't get unemployment

all states vary a little. in NJ, if you were absent for good cause (such as medical reasons) you can be eligible for benefits. did you notify the employer of the absence? depending on the severity of emergency, even this may not be necessary. there is no charge to file for unemployment. either way, apply and try. if you are denied, you can always appeal.

You can't get Employment benefits if you resign a job UNLESS you can prove that you were forced to resign or you had just-cause (any type of harrassment, poor working conditions, etc.). But if you just walked out cause you hated your job, sorry. You can't collect.\n\nBy the way it is EMPLOYMENT benefits, not UNEMPLOYMENT benefits.  Such a common misconception......

No one can watch you going to the bathroom. If your job gives you a drug test, they will send you to a testing place, which will lock up any items you may have with you, let you do your thing, and then give your things back to you.

Your first step should be to file for unemployment. If you win your claim, your unemployment wages are paid by the company that fired you. It sounds like you have worked there long enough to qualify. You should also talk to all the other employees who were there that day who witnessed these events. Get written statements from them confirming what happened. You should even talk to the first waitress who refused the table, let her know you are not trying to get her in trouble but rather the manager, and let them all know that it is important that they be as detailed as possible in what they remember. The fact that you swore at your manager is probably not a good thing, but in my experience you are most likely to get the unemployment if you give them all the details.\n\nNow, if you do get the unemployment, the fact that the store now has to pay you even though you aren't working might make them reconsider giving you your job back, to save money.\n\nAs far as getting your manager in trouble, your best option there is probably to go to the regional or district manager. If you can't find contact information for this person at the store, you could try calling Denny's customer support at 1-800-733-6697. Ask them to direct you to the Human Resources department. Before you do this, again get all the support from your coworkers to back you up on this.\n\nFinally, for every one of these situations, it would be in your benefit to talk to an attorney, to know where the law is on your side. A good resource for this is Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc., they are well-equipped to handle situations like this.

they can't fire you for an on the job injury regardless of how long you have been there, not only would you get unemployment if they did, but you would have a very strong case for a wrongfull termination lawsuit, in addition you sould seek punitive damages for the injury itself.

if you quit, you cannot collect unemployment

Generally, no.  However, I had a girlfriend who quit and won unemployment because she proved that her employer overworked her and caused her health problems.  Her proof was that it took 3 people to replace her at her job.  Do you think your employer would need to hire three people to replace you?  Otherwise, you probably don't have a leg to stand on.  Furthermore, my girlfriend didn't win right away -- had to go through appeals and it took almost a year.  Can you live a year without income to fight unemployment?  \n\nI recommend getting a new job, then quit.

They can cut your pay.  If you refuse to sign whatever it is that they want you to sign then you will more than likely be fired.  Alternatively, you could ask to have your job eliminated this could give you a better chance of receiving unemployment benefits.  If you dont sign and they terminate you because of it, theres a chance you could be denied unemployment benefits.
