DISCH
Was the claimant discharged by the employer for just cause in connection with work?

work. The individual will remain ineligible until the individual obtains covered employment, works six
weeks, and earns the required requalifying amount. 4141.29 (D)(2)(a), 4141.29 (G) ORC. For applications

application. An individual is not disqualified if the individual was discharged without just cause in
connection with work. Section 4141.29 (D)(2)(a) ORC.

The Review Commission is composed of three members appointed by the Governor, a staff of attorney/hearing officers, and
support staff. The Review Commission is independent of the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS). The
Commission reviews ODJFS unemployment compensation decisions and may affirm, reverse or modify these decisions.
The purpose of the hearing is to gather all of the facts necessary to correctly decide the case based upon the unemployment
compensation laws of the State of Ohio.
How will I know the date, time and location of the hearing
You will receive a hearing notice advising you of the date, time and location of your hearing. It is important that you read
the notice carefully and do not miss your hearing. If you are the appealing party and you miss your hearing, your case will be
dismissed.

private attorney. If you cannot afford a private attorney, your local Legal Aid office may be able to provide help at no cost.

directory at http://ohiolegalservices.org/programs on the internet. If you wish to be represented, it is important that you
arrange for a representative as soon as possible. Various service companies are available to represent employers. You will
find their telephone numbers in the Yellow Pages, listed under Workers Compensation or Unemployment Compensation
Representatives.
The hearing officer will consider any relevant evidence. You should bring witnesses and documents that support your case.

will decide whether additional witnesses are necessary.
