You should get a La. Dept of Labor Separation Notice Alleging Disqualification, Form 77 also known as a "pink slip" within 3 days of your discharge from your job. It will state the reason for the discharge. I would call them an request it if they have not given it to you and inquire. If you file for unemployment, they will have to disclose the reason to the Department of Labor in their response. However, if you only suspect you were fired for filing a harassment claim, I would say you do not yet know the reason you were discharged.
