Notes of Decisions

Good Cause

When the employe of a temporary employment agency did not report for her assigned work because she mistakenly believed that the assigned work had been cancelled, she did not have ‘‘good cause’’ for not reporting where she did not call the employment agency to make sure that the assignment had indeed been cancelled. MacDonald v. Unemployment Compensation Board of Review, 333 A.2d 199 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1975).

Notification by Employer

It is error to grant compensation to an applicant merely because an employer did not properly notify the Bureau of an employe’s failure to accept a work assignment. MacDonald v. Unemployment Compensation Board of Review, 333 A.2d 199 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1975).

After the Board determines that an offer of suitable employment was refused, it is without authority, absent a showing of prejudice, to grant compensation merely because the form of the notice of an offer of work by a claimant’s prior employer was defective. General Motors Corp. v. Unemployment Compensation Board of Review, 322 A.2d 762 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1974).
