5.5.6 Temporary Employees

Many workers get jobs through temporary staffing agencies. A temporary employee working for a staffing firm is disqualified (i.e., deemed to have voluntarily quit) if (1) “[a]t the time of hire,” the staffing firm advised the employee to report for reassignment at the conclusion of each assignment and that UC benefits may be denied for failure to do so; and (2) the employee failed, without good cause, to contact the firm for a reassignment at the conclusion of the previous assignment.1
