The Company wants you to apply for another job because if you turn it down they do not have to pay out the package. TAKE the package sister! You deserve a break after 20 years. If you know your being laid off then there is a way to estimate the weeks of salary for severance. Depending on how severance is paid - lump sum can hurt / deduct from the initial money available in the tier I (26 week). Right now see how the company pays out. In a massive lay off companies will pay severance as separation pay - I received pay checks and health benefits and when that ended I filed for unemployment and no money was deducted. You will receive some unemployment eventually. I hope you the best! http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/individual_services/10318 Dot;

You would need to get a physical of some sort showing that you couldn't do the job. If your job is eliminated then you're considered laid off and eligible. If you apply for the other job and don't get it then you would still be eligible, so go ahead and apply. If the company can show that they attempted to offer you a job and you refused then that strengthens their case. If you take the severance you could be eligible somewhere down the line. Talk about in between a rock and a hard place. If you’re offered a job that you physically can’t do, that would be your best bet for unemployment.

Plus unemployment isn't forever and you will not have benefits. You are lucky I had to drive 145 miles each way after they phased my job out. you have to loose your job to get unemployment … not just decide to not work.
