8. I was temporarily laid off for a month but when the end of the month came, I was not
called back to work. I have worked for the company for five years. What do they owe
me?
9. I have worked for the company for four years. My employer gave me 3 weeks’ notice
that I will be terminated. Now, my employer is making me do all the jobs no one else
wants to do and not letting me do any of my other work. I feel like quitting. What can I
do?
10. My boss gave me notice I was being laid off. When the lay-off date came, there was
too much work going on so I just kept working. Am I considered employed or what is
the story?
11. a) I was laid off for 50 days over the past 2 months. Is this still considered a
temporary lay-off?
b) Last year I worked for one employer and then worked for someone else for 6
months. Then I went back with my first employer. Does this count as 2 or 3
employers?
12. My employer decided today that they will be laying off 55 employees. The boss said
that we will receive termination pay. What is the earliest I could receive my termination
pay? (In how many weeks?)
13. I was temporarily laid off for 40 days. At the end of the 40 days, I was told there is no
more work for me. I have worked for the company for 8 months. My boss said I will not
receive termination pay since I was temporarily laid off. Is this right?
14. I was temporarily laid off for 30 days which is now extended to 60 days. What can I
do?
15. I have worked for the company for a year. I was told that I was terminated and I
received 2 weeks’ pay which did not include benefits. Can I complain to the company?
