President Joe Biden is calling on the Department of Labor to make this clear: Workers are entitled to refuse employment that jeopardizes their health, without sacrificing unemployment benefits.

what about if i sign up for a job, then i fear falling on my way to work- can i get jobless benefits too?
Plus the additional $600 sweetener each month, word is you can get about 50k. So why bother with a 15/hr wage when you can make 50k for nothing?
“toiling at the front lines of a deadly pandemic...” Toiling? What are they doing? Breaking rocks? Constructing the pyramids?
Odds are better for me dying in a fiery crash with an unlicensed and uninsured illegal alien that me dying of COVID.
So, a no show job, free money, and presumably some sort of criminal job on the side.
Biden’s on a roll.
I’m afraid I might get sick, so pay me to stay home? Nice work, if you can get it!
Commie POS.
The teachers union is going to love this! But first they need to lose their jobs.
The teachers are refusing to go back in Chicago and the city is doing nothing about it. This is K-8. High school has not even gone back into session, so thank goodness, those precious HS teachers are safe!

That could be a really big problem. I mean, why would you work?
Taxpayers, our kids, and our grandkids support lazy deadbeats.
Spit.
If i self identify as triplets, can i get triple the amount of benefits?
reminds me of an idiot that once called my office to sy she wouldnt be in to work because she had a vision she would die in a car accident if she dame in. My reply to her...I am having a vision that you will have a pink slip in your mailbox if you DONT show up for work tonight!
WHAT A NIGHTMARE THIS WOULD BE.
So what if your employer mandates the vaccine & you fear that getting the ‘vaccine’ endangers your health ... can you get jobless benefits? Asking for a friend.
What happened?
Don’t leave us hanging.
