I'm a supervisor in the dental clinic. One of our employees had a stroke about a month ago. She only worked once a week in our office and was employed full time somewhere else. She was a good worker and everybody really liked her. When she was in the hospital we all went to visit her. She told us she would go on disability for couple of months and then would come back to work. So we hired a temp for couple of months so that when she would feel better she would come back to work.
Today I received a letter from department of labor saying that she applied for the unemployment and our office was named in the case.
When I called her she said she had to go on unemployment because disability only paid $150 /month. She said that her other employer whom she worked for full time said it was ok for her to go on unemployment. She also said that she needed money.
Are we responsible for any payments to her? We didn't fire her. We're waiting for her to come back. Plus she only worked for us on Wed.
Thank you in advance
