Employment : Unemployment Compensation – Voluntary Discharge

Where employer denied respondent’s unemployment benefits, the denial was proper as respondent’s job was during the school year, and respondent indicated on a school form that he would be unable to return to work the following school year; therefore, respondent voluntarily left  work without good cause attributable to employer.

Decision is reversed.
