In general, employees who quit their jobs or were fired from their jobs after defying a company's vaccine rule are not eligible for benefits. Helen Rella, an employment attorney at Wilk Auslander says, "The states administer unemployment insurance programs according to the rules that the states set, and that includes eligibility." However, now four Republican-led states have changed their unemployment insurance rules to protect workers who oppose vaccination requirements by ensuring that they can collect jobless aid. As of this month, Florida, Iowa, Kansas and Tennessee have each amended their laws around unemployment insurance.
Rella says, "These rulings by the states in terms of administration of unemployment insurance programs are part and parcel of opposition to vaccine mandates in general." Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds signed a bill guaranteeing unemployment benefits for those who are fired for refusing a vaccine. She said, "No Iowan should be forced to lose their job or livelihood over the COVID-19 vaccine."
