Job: Call Center Representative (United States)

Although Nevada is a "Right to work" state, Always challenge a decision made on whether your eligible for unemployment benefits or not. Most employers will stand concrete and enforce the "right to work state." Personally, this statement means nothing else than a legal right to be prejudice and bias against you.

A Right to work State says that the employer can fire you for ANY reason at ANY time. I have challenged this many times over and have been awarded my benefits as decided by a mediation judge from the unemployment department.

Make sure that you DOCUMENT EVERYTHING that ever happened to you leading up to the termination. If you were given an employee handbook, go through it with a fine tooth comb, line by line and highlite any information you find that pertains to you being terminated. If you were terminated because someone claims that they saw you do something you didn't, find out in the handbook what the penalties are if that person did not come forward with the information immediately. Ask about witnesses. If there are not any witnesses and the employer is just trying to have you beleive that they do, have them produce the witness. Otherwise, it is all hearsay and the decision will be turned in your favor. MOST IMPROTANTLY, DO NOT EVER LET THE STATEMENT OF THIS IS A "RIGHT TO WORK STATE" SCARE YOU OFF FROM FIGHTING FOR YOUR RIGHTS!!!

You may be in a "Right to Work State," however, no one has the power to violate your CIVIL Rights.
