Hi, I was on medical leave for a few months and returned to work this week. However, before I returned I was informed by the new manager of our department that my position was being eliminated and that they distributed my duties to other personelle and that I would be coming into an office clerk role (which is basically a much lower position than where I was) for the time being (as this manager would be on vacation the next 2 weeks). After I returned there has been no clear communication with me about what my title actually is or what my duties are. My question- is it legal for them to eliminate my position before I came back to work even though they basically still kept me as an employee (though in limbo)? And if they only offer me the office clerk/demotion and I do not accept, will I be entitled to Unemployment or will it be considered a resignation? Thank you.
