Inability to Find Sufficient Childcare Was “Good Cause” for Leaving Employment

In affirming the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board’s determination claimant had good cause for leaving her employment, the Third Department wrote:

“Whether a claimant has good cause to leave his or her employment is a factual determination to be made by the Board, and its decision will not be disturbed when supported by substantial evidence” … . Claimant offered multiple reasons that she was dissatisfied with her employment, but the record supports the Board’s conclusion that the impetus for her resignation was an inability to arrange appropriate childcare despite having made sufficient efforts in that regard.  We find that substantial evidence supports the Board’s determination that, under all of the circumstances presented here, claimant had good cause to leave her employment… . Matter of Cottone…, 516338, 3rd Dept 9-19-13
