Opinion
November 7, 1991
Appeal from the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board.
While claimant contended that he worked during his lunch hour, he conceded that the employer never requested that he do so. He also admitted that he was never pressed to do more work than he had been doing even though there was a backlog. Under these circumstances the conclusion by the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, that the pressure to burden claimant with overwork was self-imposed and that he therefore left his employment for personal and noncompelling reasons, is supported by substantial evidence and must be upheld (see, Matter of Wilensky [Catherwood], 33 A.D.2d 830; Matter of Klausner [Catherwood], 27 A.D.2d 776). Claimant's remaining contentions have been considered and rejected as lacking in merit.
Mahoney, P.J., Weiss, Yesawich Jr., Levine and Harvey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
