31 Pa. Commw. 210 | Pa. Commw. Ct. | 1977
Opinion by
Gail C. Rose has appealed from a decision of the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review affirming the decision of a referee that she was ineligible for compensation because her unemployment was the result of her discharge from work for her willful misconduct. Section 402(e) of the Unemployment Compensation Law, Act of December 5, 1936, Second Ex. Sess., (1937) P.L. 2897, as amended, 43 P.S. §802(e).
Although presented in her brief as three questions, the petitioner’s contention is that the record does not support the finding that she was guilty of misconduct. The petitioner’s employer discharged her for excessive absenteeism. The employer’s representative who discharged the petitioner testified that between May 20, 1975 and the date of discharge on July 28, 1975, the petitioner had missed 128 hours of work. In March 1975 and again in May 1975 she had been suspended for absenteeism. The immediate occasion for the petitioner’s discharge was her failure to report as scheduled for a shift beginning at 11:00 o’clock P.M.
The order of the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review is affirmed.
Order
And Now, this 21st day of July, 1977, the decision of the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review is affirmed.
