Jun 22, 2000
273 A.D.2d 665 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Decided and Entered: June 22, 2000.

Appeal from a decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, filed April 26, 1999, which ruled that claimant was disqualified from receiving unemployment insurance benefits because she voluntarily left her employment without good cause.

Eric M. Roth, Scarsdale, for appellant.

Eliot Spitzer, Attorney-General (Linda D. Joseph of counsel), New York City, for respondent.

Before: Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Carpinello, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ.


MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Claimant was employed as a boutique director until she voluntarily left her employment because she was dissatisfied with the job's increased responsibilities when vacancies occurred in her staff. The Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board held that claimant was not entitled to unemployment insurance benefits because she voluntarily left her employment without good cause.

We affirm. Claimant's dissatisfaction with her work environment does not constitute good cause for leaving her employment under these circumstances (see, Matter of Zietek [Commissioner of Labor], 269 A.D.2d 657, 702 N.Y.S.2d 462; Matter of Boehm [Commissioner of Labor], 268 A.D.2d 665, 701 N.Y.S.2d 175). Furthermore, claimant's contention that her employer lied to her about the scope of the job and that she never received an e-mail regarding the use of her name on a mailer raised issues of credibility for resolution by the Board (see, Matter of Zevallos [Commissioner of Labor], 268 A.D.2d 857, 702 N.Y.S.2d 417). Claimant's remaining contentions have been examined and found to be lacking in merit.

Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Carpinello, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
