CLAIMANT PROPERLY DENIED UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS DURING FIRST SEVEN WEEKS OF A STRIKE, ALTERNATIVE WORK SITE AVAILABLE (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined claimant was properly denied unemployment insurance benefits for the first seven weeks of a strike because an alternative work site was available:

Pursuant to Labor Law § 592 (1), unemployment insurance benefits are suspended during the first consecutive seven weeks of a strike or industrial controversy beginning the day after a claimant ceases working due to a strike, unless there has been a peremptory lockout by the employer … . The record reflects that claimant did not work during the relevant period due to the strike, and that he refused his manager’s directive to report to an alternate work site that was open, staffed by supervisors and operational during the strike. Thus, substantial evidence supports the Board’s determination to suspend his benefits pursuant to Labor Law § 592 (1) … . The record also demonstrates that the employer did not, at any point, institute a work stoppage or lockout preventing employees from working but, rather, the union initiated the strike and work stoppage, in which claimant participated. Further, as the Board correctly determined, the employer’s decision to consolidate operations due to the strike and to temporarily assign claimant to a nearby work site did not constitute a “lockout[]” … , which only occurs upon “the refusal by an employer to furnish available work to [its] regular employees” … . Matter of Parron (Commissioner of Labor), 2018 NY Slip Op 01696, Second Dept 3-15-18
