In New York, if you terminate an employee, it's generally a good practice to provide a termination notice. However, even if the employee was terminated for absenteeism and tardiness, they might still be eligible for unemployment benefits.
To respond to the wage audit notice, you should:
- Provide accurate details of the employee's wages.
- Explain the reason for termination.
- Include any documentation that supports the termination reason.
