Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a late arrival to a counseling appointment can be treated as an absence sanctionable under unemployment insurance law
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. When the insured arrives so late that the counseling interview cannot take place under normal conditions at the scheduled time, the administration may treat the situation as an absence and suspend benefits.
Extrahierte Begründung
The federal court held that the relevant sanctioning provision covers the failure of the counseling interview to occur normally at the appointed date and time. The claimant's delay exceeded the tolerated threshold and prevented the adviser from receiving him.
