Question

How long does a person have to work at a job in order to qualify for unemployment compensation if the job ends

Answer 1

six months at least.................

Answer 2

Generally you have to have earnings of at least a certain amount in each of the two quarters before the quarter when you are laid off.

Answer 3

It's a certain number of weeks, and it's usually 4-5 months.  Your UI office looks at earnings in the high quarter, so if you have April-May-June for instance I think you are OK.  It's a complicated formula.  Just file and see what happens--you'll know in a few days.

Answer 4

every state has different timelines just look up your state on the web and see

Answer 5

I'm no expert but I know people at work who have been made redundant just short of working there for 2 years. Apparently that is when you are entitled to redundancy! Not dumb my employer!
