Unemployment Compensation. Fior Ramirez worked as a housekeeper for Remington Lodging Hospitality, a hotel in Atlantic Beach, Florida. After her father in the Dominican Republic suffered a stroke, she asked her employer for time offto be with him. Ramirez's manager, Katie Berkowski, refused the request. Two days later, Berkowski received a call from Ramirez to say that she was with her father. He died about a week later, and Ramirez returned to work, but Berkowski told her that she had abandoned her position. Ramirez applied for unemployment compensation benefits. Under the applicable state statute, "an employee is disqualified from receiving benefits if he or she voluntarily left work without good cause." Does Ramirez qualify for benefits? Explain. [ Ramirez v. Reemployment Assistance Appeals Commission, 135 So.3d 408 (Fla.App. 2014)] (See Income Security.)
