Topic: Reduced Hours and E.I.

Brandon-ssm

I've been asked to take a week off work unpaid and then come back with reduced hours for the next 12-16 weeks. They are figuring anywhere between 20-30 hours per week.

Am I able to apply for employment insurance without a lay off as I will be off work and unpaid for 8 consecutive days. I definitely have enough hours to claim.

My location is Sault Ste. Marie Ontario and I've been a full time employee for the last 5 years with this company.

Thanks in advance.
