135.4 Good Cause

An individual mandatory to participate in RESET may be unable to participate for some of the required hours even if the individual is not exempt as listed in Section 135.3 Exemptions from RESET Enrollment .

55 Pa. Code § 165.52

An individual who is mandatory to participate in RESET may be granted good cause to not participate for some or all of the required hours.

Good cause can also apply when an individual has not complied with an employment and training requirement because of an unexpected situation beyond the individual’s control. In this circumstance, good cause gives an individual an opportunity to quickly resolve a situation and to begin or resume participation in E&T. Good Cause codes and review periods can be found in Appendix B .

In cases when the individual’s good cause situation cannot be quickly resolved, the CAO will:

Open an ETP Project Enrollment screen on eCIS with an “A” project code;

Indicate the good cause code;

Enter a review date of not more than 6 months; and

Update the AMR, including steps the individual will take to address the good cause situation.
