Unemployment Compensation Benefits

PDF

We get many questions from past and current APL employees about eligibility for California unemployment benefits. This is a complicated legal issue and the rulings have not been consistent. One thing that’s for certain is that if you have been denied unemployment or State disability in California, appeal the decision! Many denials have been reversed on appeal after the Judge takes the time to understand the issues. We will touch on this more next month. In the meanwhile stay safe this Fourth of July!
