A JOBS participant who quits a job or refuses a bona fide job offer, without good cause, as described in NDAC § 75-02-01.2-52(4), "Voluntary quit or refusal of employment" shall be subject to the penalties described in that section in addition to being sanctioned for non-cooperation in JOBS, unless:

 

  1. The JOBS coordinator provided prior approval for doing so based on a plan for the participant to be involved in vocational education training or other education activities; or

  1. The TANF Eligibility Worker determines that a job quit penalty should not be imposed based on his or her approval of a plan of refer/transfer an individual to Tribal NEW for involvement in vocational education training or other education activities.  

When the JOBS coordinator grants prior approval, the coordinator should immediately inform the TANF Eligibility Worker to ensure that a job-quit penalty is not imposed against the participant.
