LOUISIANA Partial unemployment Benefits

I'm presently working right now. I'm working (4) 10 hour days. I was looking at taking a partime job for 8 hours on fridays at another co. If i would get layed off at my current job would i still be able to collect unemployment?


Hi,

I would think so. You would have to report the wages from the part-time job which might have an effect on how much UI benefit you receive each week, but it is entirely dependent upon how much you earn.

Here's my warning though. If you decide to quit that part-time job after you start receiving benefits, the state could possibly deny you any benefits at all brcause continuing claims consider "the most recent work separation".
