If you get fired you might not qualify for unemployment benefits, depending on jurisdiction. Not applicable to executives I suspect, but there it is.

- xigency 8y agoIt's really the other way around, at least in my state. If you quit or voluntarily leave, then you aren't eligible for unemployment. If you are laid off then you are eligible for unemployment. Whether you can collected unemployment for being "fired" depends on the circumstances of termination. Again, this might vary locally. I think this is important to clarify because this could affect the people here, not because it affects the subject of the article.
- jessaustin 8y agoIn this state, it's very hard to keep even employees who just stop showing up from drawing unemployment, if they go through the process of signing up for it. There are state employees whose job it is to bludgeon employers into acquiescing on this issue. If the employee got fired and wasn't arrested for crimes committed at the workplace, there's no way she's not getting unemployment.
