Company relocating to another City unable to commute the distance.
Hello,
My company is relocating to another city which is 1.5 hours from where I reside. My wife and I have only one vehicle to commute to and from work and I attend college after work. Now the company I have been working for is relocating to another city which is 1.5 hours out of my way. I only make $11.75/hr and I attend college after work. Can I apply for unemployment if I quit when the company relocates?
Hi Timothy,
When a company relocates to a different city .. they are definitely the one try to alter the conditions of employment that you accepted when you first became an employee.
TheCalifornia eligibility guide (there’s a link toward the bottom of the page). provides a section expressly, to discuss quitting due to time, distance, and travel.
You should check it out.
