If your employer said no unemployment, then you were misled. An employer does not have the power to deny your claim for benefits.
This law office helps applicants fight their former employer for these types of matters. An employer does not decide who gets benefits. When employers file appeals against a worker’s claim for benefits, this law office is ready.
Help When Employers Say No
Employer Says No Unemployment
When an employer says no, do this instead. Here are the steps:
- Tell yourself you can do this.
- Find out if you have any immediate deadlines.
- Send a letter to your former employer and ask them for a copy of your employment file.
- Demand that your former employer said you all relevant and important information. For example, feedback about an increase in pay, a handbook, or email.
- Demand notice about your termination.
- Research what you need to prove and what you need to say at your phone appeal.
- File an appeal before the deadline and print confirmation that this was completed.
When HR Says No Unemployment
Whether HR or managers give feedback on denying unemployment benefits, applicants are getting notice. Minnesota law does not give this kind of power to HR or managers.
This type of feedback can give an employee an advantage of notice. For example, encouraging applicants to pay closer attention to their application. Also, this can encourage applicants to seek more evidence.
The important point is knowing that an owner, boss, manager, or human resources person does not decide who gets benefits.
