Left a good job with full benefits to work for a start-up. Employment contract stated exactly:
"Benefits: Healthcare benefits will be available in next 30-60 days."
We are coming up on the 60 days, and no healthcare has been made available. They are researching, exploring, getting input, etc. The plans that are being offered are also highly-priced, and the company is giving a small reimbursement for it. Currently, spouse and I are paying on our own out of pocket for outside insurance.
Per the contract verbiage, if I need to quit to find other opportunities that do offer health insurance, is this a valid reason to sue for breach of contract and get unemployment from the state as well? Please advise.
