Hey ladies! If you give a 2 weeks notice and they do not let you work out those 2 weeks, can you file unemployment for those 2 weeks w/out pay?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks ladies! I will be waiting to give my notice! I am resigning 2 weeks after I would have given my 2 weeks b/c they don't let people fulfill their 2 weeks once the notice has been given...which I kinda understand! Thanks again!

As far as I know you can file for unemployment based on the last day you worked whether they allowed you to complete your 2 weeks notice or not shouldnt affect your unemployment.

I actually know the answer to this because I work in HR. The state of Texas allows the employer to decide whether or not they wish to accept your notice. If you offer 2 weeks or less notice, then you are not eligible for unemployment if your employer does not let you work out the full notice period. However if you provided MORE than 2 weeks notice and your employer did not accept it, then you would be eligible for unemployment in that instance. You can verify this with the Texas Workforce Commission or find a lot more information on their web site: http://www.twc.state.tx.us

No - basically because you are quiting and were not fired.

It's been at least 6 years since I last got unemployment compensation, but unless the rules have changed, your unemployment date is the last day you work, regardless of when you gave notice. The only thing that can affect your unemployment compensation with regards to "notice" is if you receive pay in lieu of notice, meaning something like they give you 2 weeks pay because they weren't able to give you notice to leave. Then that would delay the start of your unemployment benefits or your unemployment benefits would be reduced by the amount of that compensation. Again, this is how it used to work. I'm guessing not much has changed. It is the government. :-)

Blessings,

Did you quit? From all the TWC cases I have handeled someone that quits doesnt recieve unemployment benefits. If you were fired without just cause or you were laid off you are eligible.

No, 2 weeks notice is a courtesy on both ends, not a requirement. There are many jobs that do not allow 2 weeks notice, due to the nature of the position they do not want someone working the job that has one foot out the door.

I deal with unemployment claims all the time at work and you can always file, but you won't get it if you quit. You can only get it if they fire you or laid you off. If you need any other info, pm me and I'll answer any other questions you might have.
