My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: California
I was currently laid off about 4 weeks ago from my employer due to business being slow. I did file a claim for unemployment and it was not denied and I have already received 1 check.
A year ago I was working close to 40 hours per week with this employer and then went part-time to around 15 - 20 hours per week. They have asked me to return back to work at 20 hours per week in January, but for a pay reduction of over $12 per hour. I was in negotiations to try and get a better deal before I returned back to work, but they have declined. I was curious if I deny their job offer and don't return back to work if I can still collect my unemployment.
