1030
. (a) An employer that is entitled under Section 1327 to
receive notice of the filing of a new or additional claim may, within
10 days after mailing of the notice, submit to the department any
facts within its possession disclosing whether the claimant left the
employer's employ voluntarily and without good cause or left under
one of the following circumstances:
(1) The claimant was discharged from the employment for misconduct
connected with his or her work.
(2) The claimant's discharge or quitting from his or her most
recent employer was the result of an irresistible compulsion to use
or consume intoxicants including alcoholic beverages.
(3) The claimant was a student employed on a temporary basis and
whose employment began within, and ended with his or her leaving to
return to school at the close of, his or her vacation period.
(4) The claimant left the employer's employ to accompany his or
her spouse or domestic partner to a place or to join him or her at a
place from which it is impractical to commute to the employment, and
to which a transfer of the claimant by the employer is not available.
(5) The claimant left the employer's employ to protect his or her
family or himself or herself from domestic violence abuse.
(6) The claimant left the employer's employ to take a
substantially better job.
The period during which the employer may submit these facts may be
extended by the director for good cause.
(b) A base period employer that is not entitled under Section 1327
to receive notice of the filing of a new or additional claim and is
entitled under Section 1329 to receive notice of computation may,
within 15 days after mailing of the notice of computation, submit to
the department any facts within its possession disclosing whether the
claimant left the employer's employ voluntarily and without good
cause or left under one of the following circumstances:
(1) The claimant was discharged from the employment for misconduct
connected with his or her work.
(2) The claimant was a student employed on a temporary basis and
whose employment began within, and ended with his or her leaving to
return to school at the close of, his or her vacation period.
(3) The claimant left the employer's employ to accompany his or
her spouse or domestic partner to a place or join him or her at a
place from which it is impractical to commute to the employment, and
to which a transfer of the claimant by the employer is not available.
(4) The claimant left the employer's employ to protect his or her
family or himself or herself from domestic violence abuse.
(5) The claimant left the employer's employ to take a
substantially better job.
The period during which the employer may submit these facts may be
extended by the director for good cause.
(c) The department shall consider these facts together with any
information in its possession. If the employer is entitled to a
ruling under subdivision (b) or to a determination under Section
1328, the department shall promptly notify the employer of its ruling
as to the cause of the termination of the claimant's employment. The
employer may appeal from a ruling or reconsidered ruling to an
administrative law judge within 30 days after mailing or personal
service of notice of the ruling or reconsidered ruling. The 30-day
period may be extended for good cause, which includes, but is not
limited to, mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect.
The director is an interested party to an appeal. The department may
for good cause reconsider a ruling or reconsidered ruling within
either five days after the date an appeal to an administrative law
judge is filed or, if an appeal is not filed, within 30 days after
mailing or personal service of notice of the ruling or reconsidered
ruling. However, a ruling or reconsidered ruling that relates to a
determination that is reconsidered pursuant to subdivision (a) of
Section 1332 may also be reconsidered by the department within the
time provided for reconsideration of that determination.
(d) For purposes of this section only, if the claimant voluntarily
leaves the employer's employ without notification to the employer of
the reasons for the leaving, and if the employer submits all of the
facts within its possession concerning the leaving within the
applicable time period referred to in this section, the leaving is
presumed to be without good cause.
(e) An individual whose employment is terminated under the
compulsory retirement provisions of a collective bargaining agreement
to which the employer is a party shall not be deemed to have
voluntarily left his or her employment without good cause.
(f) For purposes of this section, "spouse" includes a person to
whom marriage is imminent, and "domestic partner" includes a person
to whom a domestic partnership, as described in Section 297 of the
Family Code, is imminent.
(g) This section shall become operative on July 1, 2015.
