Ariz. Admin. Code § R6-3-53170 - Employment Office or Other Agency Referral (refusal of Work 170)
A. General (Refusal
of Work 170.05)
1. A disqualification should
not be considered until it is clear that the claimant has had sufficient time
to consider the offer or referral. While a claimant should need little or no
time to determine whether he will accept work which does not differ from his
customary work, he may need substantial time to think over acceptance of other
types of work.
2. A statement of
preference for a specific type of work is not necessarily a refusal of other
work. An attempt by the claimant to get better terms or a more desirable
referral without a rejection of the offer should not be considered a
refusal.
B. Failure to
report to employment office (Refusal of Work 170.15). A claimant's failure to
respond as directed to a job service call in card or telephone call, regarding
a possible referral to employment, shall not be treated as a refusal of work
since neither instructions to apply for work nor a definite offer of work was
given. The issue in such cases is the claimant's availability for the week in
question and should be adjudicated in accordance with
R6-3-52160(B)
of these rules.
