Unemployment Appeal Letter

Unemployment Appeal Letter

Dear [Employment Appeals Board],

I am writing to appeal the decision regarding my unemployment benefits. I was recently denied benefits due to the reason that my employer stated that I voluntarily left my job. However, this is not true, and I would like to explain my situation.

I was working for [company name] as a [position] for the past [duration]. During my time there, I faced multiple instances of harassment from my supervisor, [supervisor's name]. Despite reporting this to HR, nothing was done to address the situation, and the harassment continued. This created a toxic work environment for me and impacted my mental health.

Eventually, I reached a breaking point and felt that I had no choice but to resign from my position. This was not a voluntary decision but rather the result of the unbearable working conditions. I had no other option but to leave my job to protect my well-being.

I understand that leaving my job may appear to be a voluntary decision, but I hope that you can understand the circumstances that led to it. I have been actively seeking employment since my departure from [company name], and I am eager to get back to work as soon as possible. I am in need of these unemployment benefits to support myself and my family while I search for new job opportunities.

Thank you for taking the time to review my appeal. I appreciate your consideration in this matter.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
