Re: DEMAND LETTER 

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

I was transferred from Slick Rock Tanning & Spa in Washington to the company’s branch in Idaho. I was then fired for gossiping. I have asked for proof of gossiping but none has been availed to me. I have received information that the company is disputing my unemployment claim. I have been informed that the reason why the company is disputing my unemployment claim is because I refused to work or that I was unavailable for work.

I would like to state that I did all work and was present in all the shifts I was assigned. I was able-bodied at all times and never refused to do any work. I never argued whenever work or shifts were assigned to me. I even volunteered to work at an event. My doctor became concerned that I was being exposed to Covid-19 because people at work were not wearing masks. The conditions at the workplace prevented me from being able to work 40 hours/week. There was no ventilation and I wasn’t allowed to turn on the thermostat.

I strongly believe that everyone should wear masks to combat the spread of Covid-19 and enable us return to normalcy. When I worked at the Washington office, I raised concerns that people were not wearing masks as per Washington state law. From that point, I was treated differently by being assigned roles I had no training for, cutting my work hours and eventually transferring me to the Idaho office. I am under the impression that these were acts of retaliation against me for my strong belief that everyone should wear masks to help us overcome the current pandemic.

Despite my hard work, dedication and commitment to the company, my employment was unfairly terminated. I believe I was not accorded due process prior to termination of my employment at Slick Rock Tanning & Spa, Idaho. On the day my employment was terminated, all my work emails and correspondences were deleted. 

Even after terminating my employment, Slick Rock Tanning & Spa has gone further to dispute my unemployment claim on the basis that I refused to work or was unavailable for work, when it is clear that I could not be able to work due to the aforementioned health reasons. I hereby demand that Slick Rock Tanning & Spa withdraw their dispute of my unemployment claim within the next 14 days.

This letter will act as a final warning to withdraw your dispute of my unemployment claim. At this time, I am not contacting the authorities or filing a civil suit against you, as I hope we can resolve this matter without authoritative involvement. I am not under any circumstances, however, waiving any legal rights I have presently, or future legal remedies against you by sending you this letter.

I expect to hear back from you in a timely manner of no more than fourteen (14) days from the time of this letter. If the dispute of my unemployment claim is not withdrawn within this 14-day period, I will seek appropriate relief before a court of proper jurisdiction for full payment plus all costs, damages and witness fees.

 

Sincerely,
