(3) Refusal of employment.
(i) In determining whether an applicant's or recipient's refusal to accept an offer of employment constitutes refusal or failure to comply without good cause, a social services official shall consider the report of the employment unit or agency through which the job referral was made, pertinent information supplied by the prospective employer, the explanation of the applicant or recipient for not accepting the offer of employment, and any other pertinent evidence.
(ii) An individual is deemed not to have willfully and without good cause refused or failed to comply with employment program requirements, or is deemed to have good cause for refusing an offer of employment in which such person is able to engage, if the evidence shows that:
(a) the job offer was not bona fide;
(b) the salary or wages were less than the minimum required by law, or the conditions of employment were otherwise contrary to law;
(c) child care necessary for an individual to participate is not available in accordance with Part 415 of this Title;
(d) necessary supportive services are unavailable;
(e) a strike, lockout or other public or private industrial controversy was in progress at the place in which employment was offered;
(f) the job would have been hazardous to the applicant's or recipient's life or health, or there was an absence, if appropriate, of workers'compensation;
(g) the place of employment required unreasonable, based on the standards of the community, travel from the applicant's or recipient's home;
(h) child care plans were temporarily disrupted, making it impossible for the applicant or recipient to report as required;
(i) accepting a job would result in a net loss of cash income for the household and the social services district does not make supplemental payments pursuant to section 352.7(m) of this Title to prevent a net loss of cash income;
(j) the assignment or activity is contrary to law;
(k) a personal or family emergency of substantial nature prevents compliance if the participant has notified the social services district with reasonable promptness of his/her inability to comply;
(l) such refusal is caused by circumstances beyond a participant's control.
