Many employers assume that if they fire an employee for what they consider misconduct, the employee will not be entitled to unemployment benefits. As the Washington Court of Appeals has explained in three recent cases, that may not be the case: it depends on the circumstances.
As is commonly known, over the last several decades an epidemic of “lifestyle diseases” has developed in the United States. Certain unhealthy lifestyle activities—such as inactivity, poor nutrition, tobacco use, and frequent alcohol consumption—have caused a sharp increase in the prevalence of chronic disease, such as diabetes, heart disease, and chronic pulmonary conditions. Out of a direct concern for the impact of chronic disease on employee health and well-being—as well the cost of health care coverage and employee productivity—employers have increasingly begun implementing health promotion and disease prevention policies, commonly referred to as workplace “wellness programs.”
Each year the United States Supreme Court reviews a select number of lower court decisions. Between October and June, the Court hears oral argument and issues decisions in less than 100 of the more than 7,000 petitions for review filed each year. This year, the Court granted certiorari (review) in a handful of cases involving labor and employment issues.
