I was denied unemployment benefits after claiming for it a month ago because the department of labor claimed I quit with no good cause in the determination sent to me in the mail. I claimed I was layed off because I was an experienced office worker for almost 5 years and weekend manager, my company then signed my lay off papers because they are downsizing they no longer have any office positions available for me. I tried to fight and hold on to my position with the company. I was then only left with one choice by my employer in terms of employment and that was to work on-site on the street, escorting clients of the company to their taxi/limousine, which I feel is a huge demotion and does not have anything to do with my knowledge and experience with my companys programs and line of work. After giving a shot at the position offered I came back to my employer and was disputing with him that the change is wrong and I want my position in the office back which I am trained and skilled to do. After this on going dispute, my employer said again there is no room for you just file for unemployment. I filed for benefits and later was told I quit as per the department of labor, so I contacted my employer and asked him what's going with my claim and why has someone in the company claimed that I quit? Then my former manager contacted the president of the company and reviewed my case and decided I should be entitled for benefits and that will be passed on to proper department in the company. Now one week later I receive a letter of denial of benefits in
Comments for Unusual case of denial of unemployment benefits.
