Q: Can I get unemployment if I was fired after a workplace accident? I got hurt at work when a forklift ran over my feet and fractured them. I passed the post-accident drug tests, but 2 months later my boss fired me. My boss said the accident was my fault. Can I get unemployment?? A: Maybe.? Ouch! I hope you've recovered from that injury. But just because you were involved in an on the job accident does not automatically mean that your claim will be denied.? OESC will likely ask more questions. Had you been warned about anything at all during your employment? Did you have any prior safety violations? Had you been previously warned about a same or similar situation to this accident? The definition of misconduct does include a discharge for violating a safety rule. So, if your employer can prove that you caused (or contributed to) the accident by violating a safety rule that you knew (or should have reasonably known) about, then yes, your claim can be denied.? https://bit.ly/4enAjCZ #kathybushnellesq #oklahoma #unemployment #oesc

Q: Is my employer exempt from paying into unemployment? When I was let go, I was told was “it isn't working out, no misconduct.” But when I applied for unemployment benefits, I was denied because my employer (a religious organization) is exempt from paying into unemployment. So even though I’m unemployed through no fault of my own, I still can't collect. What gives?? A: Yes. Some employers are exempt. The vast majority of employers are required to participate in the unemployment program. But some employers are not required to participate; they can opt out. Religious institutions are not the only ones who are exempt. Non-profit organizations and tribal governments are two other exemptions that come to mind. However, even when a business is exempt, they can opt-in so their employees can claim unemployment benefits when they separate. For example, nearly all the tribal governments in Oklahoma opt-in, though they are not required.? https://bit.ly/47sIYlq #kathybushnellesq #oklahoma #unemployment #oesc
