Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
misconduct  breaches of company policy 

Summary:

The Commission determined that the claimant had lost his employment due to his own misconduct and imposed an indefinite disqualification. The claimant had been dismissed for violating a company rule regarding horseplay at work during which a co-worker was injured. The employer had a zero tolerance policy in regard to horseplay on the work site and banned the claimant for 90 days and consequently dismissed him. The BOR reviewed the evidence and found that the claimant was breaching a company rule which was subject to dismissal for any breach. The Board also noted that the claimant was aware of the company's policy as he had attended a site safety orientation session. The laimant's appeal is dismissed by the Umpire.
