Can my Job ghost my employment?
For context: Every employee at my job was Furloughed because the physical space was being reconstructed. They told us the Furlough would end at a specific date and we would all return to work. That date has come and gone and made an announcement of their re-opening on their website and social media accounts. However, I have not been contacted so I reached out to HR in the email chain where they confirmed the end of our Furlough date but haven't heard back in over a week. The GM at the time of my employment moved on to another company during the furlough so I have no other managers to ask.
My question is what sort of confirmation can I get? I ask because my current unemployment service depends on the end of my furlough if they say I was fired for breaking a policy. I also want to know so when I interview with other potential employers I can be clear and honest about my previous employment if they reach out to the company for my reference.
Thank you!
