As workers who were brought back to their jobs after furloughs and layoffs due to the Covid-19 crisis face additional rounds of cuts, many may be wondering if it’s possible to restart unemployment benefits.
For most, the answer is yes.
In August and September, 27% of workers who were put back on payrolls after an initial Covid-19-related layoff lost their jobs again, according to a joint study from Cornell University, the U.S. Private Sector Job Quality Index and research firm RIWI that was released Wednesday. Another 36% have been told by their employers that they could be laid off again as the coronavirus pandemic continues, according to the study.
