This would depend on the length of your work time vs the period workers comp represents, as to your injury/sickness. Unemployment generally has a base period of 5 quarters that it derives its calculations on, so it's mainly time related.
Unemployment and Workers Comp are two different programs, qualification for one does not depend on the other.
no. If your on workers comp. then your still employeed.
No. You would collect Workman's Compensation benefits because you were unable to work, thus disqualifying you from collecting unemployment (you have to be seeking full time employment to qualify for this).
No. Workers Comp responds to injuries on the job and unemployment responds when you become unemployed.
it seem like forever
If you draw WC benefits for being incapacitated from working, you can't draw UI benefits - reserved for people actively seeking work, and not incapacitated.
Yes.Another answer:It would depend on several factors, mainly the time line involved. If your workers comp extended beyond the limits of unemployment qualifications, it might be questionable. Best advice is to check with the unemployment office for clarification.
They should be able to as they both are agencies of the state.
if on nys unemployment, if sick, should you say no work that week and say workman's comp?
If you were injured on the job, the better course of action would be to file for Worker's Comp.
In New York you can not collect both at the same time. If you can prove, which would be hard without physical evidence, that you were fired due to the injury you can sue the employer. But if you are collecting comp you can file a claim for unemployment but I would wait until the comp is up.
You usually have to apply for workmans comp. just like unemployment . I would go online and fillout and application as soon as possible to get the process started .
Because Workers Comp and disability are health issues, you can file for unemployment, but you have to qualify for them under Kentucky's laws like everyone else.
