Summary:
The claimant worked for over ten years with his employer up to July 31, 2007. At that time he voluntarily retired. He quit his job because of retirement, having reached 65, as well as having health problems. Evidence from the employer was that there was no mandatory retirement policy with the company and the claimant could have continued working after age 65. The employer also stated that they had no information concerning the claimant having medical problems that would cause him to retire. The employer also stated that if there were some problems for the claimant continuing his job, they may have accommodated him with lighter duties. The appeal of the claimant is dismissed.
