BR-771609 - Issue ID 0002 3797 42 (5/6/2014)

The Board held that a claimant’s leaving was involuntary where the claimant was experiencing respiratory issues while at work. Her belief that the presence of mold in the workplace was causing these issues was reasonable because the employer’s attempts to repair the leaking roof only marginally improved her issues and because she only felt complete relief when she left work. She took steps to preserve her employment when she complained to the employer about her health concerns and the employer refused to acknowledge them.
