Unemployment Claim Denial Appeal

Summary

In Kentucky, employers can set their own attendance policies. For unemployment claims, you must be unemployed through no fault of your own, able to work, available for work, and actively seeking employment. If your claim is under fact-finding, it means eligibility is still being determined. You can appeal if denied.

Hello Mary, I'm sorry to hear about your situation. In Kentucky, employers are generally allowed to set their own attendance policies. However, for your unemployment claim:
- You must be unemployed through no fault of your own.
- You must be able to work, available for work, and actively seeking employment.
If your claim is under fact-finding, it means they're still determining eligibility. You can appeal if denied.
