STRIKE QUESTION

Barbe224

HI! If a Union in Maryland issues a 10 day Strike notice (healthcare) for Economic Reasons... are the members eligible for unemployment and assistance programs such as daycare vouchers & food stamps? Thanks for your help.

Your state law will be your guide to learning if these benefits are available to striking employees. Most states prohibit these kind of benefits from being available to employees who "hit the bricks", but you'll need to determine what Maryland says.
