Laundry v. Franciscan Health Care Center

McDEVITT, Chief Justice.

Appellant, Franciscan Health Care Center (“Franciscan”), appeals an order of the Industrial Commission awarding respondent, Judith N. Laundry (“Laundry”), unemployment benefits. Franciscan contends that Laundry is not entitled to any benefits because she voluntarily quit her job with Franciscan and failed to show good cause for refusing Franciscan’s offer of alternative employment. . The Commission found that Laundry was terminated, but not for misconduct, and that Franciscan failed to adequately show that it offered Laundry alternative employment. We reverse.
