This is a common problem; that is, the employer claiming the employee quit to avoid the unemployment claim. This is not something we do everyday, but some general comments for what they are worth: 1. Don't sign anything that says you quit. 2. Groom witnesses who know you didn't quit by observing events at the time or at least your conduct at the time (people who quit may act more calmly with less obvious distress than those who are fired). 3. If you signed something (#1) revoke it in writing, saying signed under threat of non-payment of wages or lack of reference -whatever the facts were. 4. Do a letter or written note to employer saying that you did not quit -ready to work tomorrow -save a copy for later hearing. 5. Request hearing. Hope this helps. GOOD LUCK! Law Offices of Donald W.
