Summary:
The claimant stated that she left her employment after 24 years because her employer criticized and verbally abused her in front of other employees and patients. In May 2009, he called her an idiot in a conversation with an assistant. Finally, on July 2, 2009, the claimant attempted to discuss the situation with the employer, who once again ignored her and looked at her with indifference. The claimant then decided that she could no longer tolerate the stress of the situation and resigned. The employer stated that he did not know why the claimant left her employment. He added that he was unaware that the claimant believed that there was a problem in their working relationship. He explained that the claimant had personal problems that caused her stress. The Board of Referees found that, under the circumstances, the claimant had other reasonable alternatives than to immediately leave her employment. The appeal is dismissed by the Umpire.
