Soyster Unemployment Compensation Case

Opinion by Rhodes, P. J., This is an unemployment compensation case in which claimant has appealed from the denial of benefits by the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review. Iler application was disallowed by the Bureau of Employment Security, the referee, and the Board of Review for the reason that she voluntarily terminated her employment and was therefore disqualified from receiving benefits under the provisions of section 402-(b)(1) of the Unemployment Compensation Law, 43 PS §802(b) (1). Appellant was last employed by the Martinsburg Shoe Company, Martinsburg, Pennsylvania, where she had worked for seven and a half years. Her last day of work was January 19, 1961. On January 6, 1961, she gave two weeks’ notice that she was terminating her employment because of dissatisfaction with another employe. On January 16, 1961, appellant at [549] tempted to retract her notice of termination, but it was not accepted by her employer because arrangements had been made for her replacement. There was testimony to the effect that another employe was being trained for that particular job after appellant gave notice that she was quitting. The board found that under the circumstances appellant’s separation was voluntary and without cause of a necessitous and compelling nature, and that she was accordingly disqualified from receiving benefits Tinder the provisions of the Law.

Progress Manufacturing Company, Inc., v. Unemployment Compensation Board of Review, 406 Pa. 163, 176 A. 2d 632. It is significant that appellant, having given two weeks’ notice to quit, set in motion the process whereby arrangements were made for her replacement. Wc have recently held that a resignation voluntarily sub mitted could, under the circumstances, be relied upon by the employer notwithstanding a belated attempt to withdraw by the employe.
