UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE issues in this database concern almost exclusively whether claimants are employees, who are entitled to Unemployment Insurance benefits, or independent contractors, who are not so entitled. The “employer-employee” relationship cases address the specific characteristics of specific jobs held by the claimants. Therefore most of the specific issues listed below are specific job titles. Whether a claimant has committed “disqualifying misconduct” is also a recurring issue. A keyword search in the “Unemployment Insurance” database category for “misconduct” will find the “disqualifying misconduct” cases.
