Re: suspension
There is no law on how long a suspension can last or whether the employer must communicate a termination of a suspension. However, if someone is not working because of a suspension, that person can go ahead and file a claim for unemployment for the period of time he or she is in suspension. If benefits are awarded, the benefit will then end once the suspension ends, the person finds another job or benefits run out.
