In early December, Decco Manufacturing Corporation underwent a major downsizing and laid off 40 percent of its employees. Robert Banks was not laid off, but he thought that he probably would be laid off in the near future unless business got dramatically better. In fact, his supervisor told him that he would probably be laid off in early January. Robert decided that if he was going to get laid off anyway, he would rather have the time between jobs over the holidays, so he quit and filed for unemployment compensation. Should he be able to collect worker’s compensation?
