Good cause for leaving employment includes the good cause provisions for declining employment found in Section 2438.45.10.10, and resigning from a job that does not meet the suitability criteria in Section 2438.45.10.15, regardless of whether the job was unsuitable at the time of employment or became unsuitable later.
Other good cause criteria include: • Discrimination by any employer based on age, race, sex, color, handicap, religious beliefs, national origin, political beliefs, or marital status. • Work demands or conditions that render continued employment unreasonable, such as working without being paid on schedule. • Acceptance by any AG member of employment or enrollment at least half-time in any recognized school, training program, or institution of higher education that requires an AG member to leave employment. • Leaving a job in connection with patterns of employment in which employees frequently move from one employer to another, such as migrant farm labor or construction work.
