What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
Hello,
We have an employee that has recently been making lots of mistakes and just overall slacking off a lot lately. Her mistakes actually cost the company a lot of money and sales. We have sent her several warnings already in the past couple of months and she has not improved much.
So we ended up checking on her Internet Browsing History and her In-Office Chat Logs.
We hit the mother load. She has been using company time to browse for new employment and scheduling interviews.
And her chat logs with fellow colleagues in the office is full of malice, hate and personal information. It turns out she has been carrying on a sexual relationship with another employee as well. Which we realized was why she was constantly away from her desk when we needed her.
And she has been gossiping about it with another colleague within the chats. We realized that her entire day is taken up with these gossiping chats with her colleague and that's why she has been falling behind.
We are ready to terminate her and the second employee as well. But can they both collect Unemployment still due to what we have discovered?
Thank you.
P.S. I meant to say "company computer" in the subject line.
