The continuing state budget crisis heightens the possibility that academics and professionals could receive notices of non-renewal. Members involuntarily separated from payroll without a reasonable assurance of employment may qualify for unemployment insurance benefits. Unemployment insurance is temporary income for eligible workers who become unemployed through no fault of their own and who are ready, willing, and able to work. A contract contingent on student enrollment, funding, program needs, etc., should not be considered reasonable assurance of employment in the next semester. You can apply for unemployment benefits using the state Labor Department’s Benefits Online Page (http://ui.labor.state.ny.us/ UBC/home.do?FF_LOCALE=1) between 7:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, all day Saturday, and until 7 p.m. Sunday. — Donald Feldstein |
