● | The job did not meet suitable work requirements. See 0028.18.03 (Suitable/Unsuitable Work). |
● | Employer discrimination. |

● | The PWE enrolls at least half-time in any recognized school, training program, or institution of higher education that requires the PWE to leave employment. |
● | The PWE quits work so another unit member can accept employment or enroll at least half-time in any recognized school, training program, or institution of higher education. |
● | A client under age 60 resigns, and the employer recognizes it as retirement. |
● | The client accepts a new job of 20 hours a week at minimum wage, or fewer hours equal to the pay of 20 hours a week at minimum wage. |
