I was notified by employer on November 20th my position would be eliminated. This was communicated verbally in a face to face meeting with the company President. He stated I would be paid for an additional 2 week pay period ( bi-weekly pay period.) therefore I’d be paid on November 23 (for the previous pay period) and my final pay would be on Dec 8th.
As promised I received my final pay on Dec 8th. However I was not informed my insurance benefits would be eliminated effective Nov 30th of the previous pay period. Can an employer eliminate your benefits prior to final pay? I’ have a dr. Appt next week but no longer have insurance. Also, I did not receive notice of insurance cancellation or Cobra. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
