Do part-time employees receive unemployment in California?
If the EDD grants benefits to the part-time employee, does the employer have any right to challenge this decision?
Filing for Unemployment
Employment Development Department (EDD) Office, 1-800-300-5616. This number changes periodically, so you may have to look it up. Don't delay, as payments only go back to the first day of application. There is, however, a one-week unpaid waiting period for each benefit year, which begins with the date of filing for benefits and ends one calendar year later. Currently, the maximum payment per week is $330; most part-time faculty who apply usually receive this amount.
