Section R6-3-50365 - Prospect of Other Work (v L 365)

A. General (V L 365.05)

1. A worker who has no objection to the work he has been doing and quits because he has prospects of other work, but no definite offer, leaves voluntarily without good cause in connection with his work.

2. A leaving to accept employment that would clearly better the claimant's economic or personal circumstances or working conditions, is for a compelling personal reason.

a. If the prospective employment fails to materialize because of circumstances beyond the control of the claimant the determination on the leaving would remain the same.

b. The claimant's statement that he left to accept other work is questionable when there is an unreasonable time lapse between the two jobs. This point may be decisive in determining whether or not the claimant left for a compelling personal reason.

3. A quit because the claimant objects to some aspect of the work he has been doing should be considered with reference to the appropriate Benefit Policy rule.

B. Leaving to enter self employment (V L 365.3). A worker who quits to enter self employment leaves voluntarily without good cause in connection with his work.

C. Leaving part-time work to accept full-time work (V L 365.42)

1. Workers who leave part-time work to accept full-time work usually leave for compelling personal reasons not attributable to the employer.

2. Workers who leave part-time work to accept full-time work when the hours and earnings have been reduced by the employer from full-time to part-time work, leave with good cause connected with the work.

D. Leaving full-time work to accept part-time work (V L 365.43)

1. A worker who leaves full-time work for part-time work merely because of a preference for part-time work leaves without good cause in connection with his work.

2. A worker who leaves full-time work for part-time work leaves for compelling personal reasons not attributable to his employer if:

a. It can be shown that personal circumstances or health reasons compelled the change; or

b. He quits unsuitable full-time work to accept part-time work for which he is qualified.
