It really depends on why you were missing days at work in the first place. You can apply for unemployment since you were fired and you will be given the chance to explain why you were fired for attendance issues.

∙ 14y agoIt all depends on your employer... I worked with a woman who drank at work all the time, until she took it too far and finally was fired. She now collects unemployment- only because my boss didn't want to deal with going to a hearing to battle it out.. I guess due to their long-time relationship. In most cases, however, you won't be awarded with unemployment wages if you've been indulging in your favorite spirits regularly while on the job. Drinking on the job sheds a great deal of light on your character and work ethic, and if you can't stay sober while at work- you won't get any empathy from unemployment officers.

Can any person collect unemployment in Washington state if you are fired?
In most cases, yes you can. You will receive notification once you file for Unemployment. When you file you select fired for attendance, or if that's not there then select fired/disqualified. Once you have filed you will be sent a letter and asked to call a number and claim (although no money will be given at this point). After about 5 weeks you are asked to do a phone interview where your employer, an Unemployment agent, and you will participate. Most cases your employer won't participate but there are some that do. After the interview they will determine if you were fired because of an ongoing medical condition or if you just didn't go to work. If your reason is the latter, you will most likely not receive benefits. If you do have a recurring medical condition, then mention this to the claims interviewer that you talk to and they will ask you to fax this info to them to give "evidence" to your claim. You will receive notification from the Unemployment center after approx 3 business days if you will receive benefits or not. Basically, if you get the unemployment you were penalized 5 weeks without benefits because of the attendance issue.

To my understanding, if you were fired, you can only receive unemployment if you were not at fault. I was fired today & just filed a claim online. I will receive my 1st check next Wednesday. Just prepare a good excuse as a backup, just in case you're ever taken to a trial.

You were terminated for attendance can you draw unemployment in North Carolina?
You should check with your local unemployment office; but in almost all cases, if you are terminated for wrong doing or quit your job, you cannot collect unemployment. Otherwise, people would just get a job and do something to get fired or quit, just to get the money from unemployment. You may want to check to see if your state is a fire at will state. That reduces your chance of collection unemployment dramatically.

Can you collect unemployment if you were fired for attendance in Florida?
Your former employer is responsible for paying a portion of your unemployment. It's really not fair to them to make them keep paying you even though they fired you for being a lousy employee. So, probably not; you might want to contact the unemployment office anyway just to make sure. In general, if you were terminated "for cause" (meaning: you got fired because of something you did, like not show up for work), you're much less likely to be able to collect unemployment than if you were "laid off".
