CA to FL Question (receive, qualify, work, employment)

[zxz14]

I spent 2.5 years working in CA, then moved back to FL at the end of March 2014. I was approved for CA unemployment and received benefits, starting the first week of April. I received benefits for 6 weeks, until I found employment in FL in mid May. The working conditions at this job are bad, and I want to quit. I have been tolerating the conditions at this job for 5 months. Can I quit and still receive my CA benefits?
Thanks.

You can quit only for good cause and expect to resume CA benefits.

Read CA's UIBDG on Voluntary Quit - you might find qualifying reason:

Voluntary Quit VQ 440 - Working Conditions

Voluntary Quit VQ 235 - Health and Safety Considerations

Just know that the odds are stacked against you. When you accept a job, it's presumed that you got all the information at the time of hire to decide whether to accept the job or refuse it. Once you accepted it, you lose any chance at arguing that the job is "unsuitable." Now, if things are CHANGING and you've got some solid proof of that, then you can make a case that you've been fired from the job you had, and that your quit was really you refusing the change in wages, hours, and terms and conditions of employment.

Thank you both for your help.
