    Default Re: Would I Qualify for Unemployment Compensation If

    A contract ending is not a firing.

    You can bet that if an employer receives a notice of an unemployment claim for someone who was offered and refused a contract, and that person is saying they did not refuse any work, the employer is going to tell the unemployment office about it loudly and in no uncertain terms. I'm not going so far as to call it fraud but there's no way that's going to go unnoticed.

    Not in the strickest sense, but I lived that nightmare of thinking I quit, when in the UI world it was a firing and a refusal of work. Let the employer protest on that basis, but if I had to do it over again, I wouldn't have written a letter of resignation, I would have just said, "I'm refusing your offer of continued employment in the poor substitute of a job you're offering." I would have submitted my UI paperwork as a discharge and a refusal of work, and had I done that, it might have spared me waiting 363 days to get my first UI check.
