Unemployment benefits are not taken from your paycheck. The employer
pays them out of pocket, at a variable rate based on that particular
employer's experience. That is, the more often the employer fires
people, the higher the rate goes. This variability is not directly
reflected in your paycheck the way a change in Social Security rates
would, for example.

Most employers do not challenge legitimate claims and only rarely
challenge even unreasonable claims. The fact that you had to go through
a hearing once does not mean you should expect to repeat that
experience.
