Legal Question in Disability Law in Florida
Disability and Labor Law
If I have a disability, my employer informs me that my position is being absorbed by another vacant position, they offer me the vacant position but, I am not able to accept that position because of my physical limitations, they try to string me along before terminating me, and I resign informing them that I can't accept the job because it requires more of me physically, would I be entitle to unemployment compensation?

Re: Disability and Labor Law
You probably should not have resigned. They would have needed to make reasonable accomodations for you, but it seems that you left before they had that opportunity.
