Reply to comment by MizchiefKilz in Filing for Unemployment with Company that serially fires employees by marqui4me

Exactly. That's why the employer may not win.

What is the documented policy; when and how was it shared; did employee receive relevant notification and training re policy; Is policy legal; In what way did employee violate policy; were they warned, when and how, etc., what is history of firings?

It depends. Some things are pretty obvious. For example, if you no call, no show, the unemployment office is unlikely to rule in your favor. I forget the language they use, but if you show no regard or care to protect your unemployment, they will not rule in your favor. You don't have to a have a policy for everything as an employer.

I was GM at a restaurant a while back. Guy stops showing up for work, I document it, after a week of not responding I terminated him in the system. He shows up a month later, and I tell him I had to hire a replacement because he stopped showing up and responding.

Dude filed for unemployment and received it. I was confused to say the least but it was not my job or responsibility anymore to worry about that.
