Unemployment benefits cannot be denied because of lack of skill
These days many employers are trying to reduce costs by reducing staff headcount. But when employees are let go they may be eligible for unemployment benefits. The more former employees receiving unemployment the hirer and employers unemployment insurance premiums.
Employers may try to deny benefits by charging that the employer was terminated because they were incapable of performing the required work. In other words, the employee was incompetent. However, an employee who does not quit on their own volition cannot be denied unemployment benefits unless the reason for their termination was misconduct.
As long as, the employee does not intentionally do a bad job they are entitled to unemployment benefits.
