Can you collect unemployment if you were fired for an outside shoplifting charge?

The answer to this question is not as absolute as one might think. In Minnesota, an applicant for unemployment benefits is not automatically denied compensation if fired for stealing. Just because an employer says an employee was terminated for stealing does not mean the employee was in fact stealing. The first issue is whether or not theft was the cause for termination. If yes, it is critical to examine whether or not theft can be proven. If the employee in fact intentionally stole from their employer, misrepresenting this fact can lead to fraud, overpayment of unemployment benefits, and criminal prosecution. If the employee did not steal from their employer, then the fact that an employer claims theft should be challenged. The third issue is what was stolen. The fourth issue is what was the value of the property stolen. In Minnesota, the answers to these questions determine whether or not the employee was involved with aggravated employment misconduct. Given the severity of this issue and because it is not necessarily black and white, consider seeking an opinion from an attorney.

Can you collect unemployment on all days of the week?

Unemployment benefits are ste by the state in which you live in. Generally, for a person to collect unemployment benefits, first, the company has to pay into the unemployment fund of that particular state, then he / she would have to be laid off by a company downsizing or unfairly dismissed by their supervisor, boss, what have you. If the employee was in any responsible for his / her dismissal, i.e., theft, absentism, unsatisfactory job performance, etc, you are not getting it. A 2 day a week job, presumably 16 hours a week is a part time job and carries few benefits, i.e., vacation time, medical, sick time, etc. It would be rare indeed for an employer to offer unemployment benefits to a part time worker. Of course, it may be you work for "a horse of a different color."

How does Walmart handle employee theft?

they have someone who works in their loss prevention department meet with the employee(s) about the theft. They usually also have between 2-3 managers present to verify they met with the employee(s ) read them their rights etc. Afterwards they have to sign discharge papers that state their employment will be terminated and they can't work for the company or any company owned by it again. For example, they can't work for walmart or sam's club every again. They may not follow up exactly like how I explained it, but I think it's very similar. I work at ann Taylor loft as an assistant manager and that's how we handle employee theft.
