EXCESSIVE ABSENTEEISM JUSTIFIED DENIAL OF BENEFITS.

The Third Department determined claimant’s excessive absenteeism justified the denial of unemployment insurance benefits. The fact claimant didn’t realize the last warning was a final warning did not excuse the behavior:

Excessive absenteeism, which continues despite repeated warnings, has been held to constitute misconduct disqualifying a claimant from receiving unemployment insurance benefits … . Here, it is undisputed that claimant was continually absent from work even after she was warned that further absences would result in disciplinary action, including discharge. Although claimant maintains that she did not realize that the last warning was her final one, this does not excuse her behavior under the circumstances presented. Matter of Mead (Commissioner of Labor), 2016 NY Slip Op 07374, 3rd Dept 11-10-16
