Huh?
If I quit my job to be with my wife in Florida, I wouldn't expect unemployment compensation.
That's not what it's for.
Not that that will stop the "discrimination" screamers.
DISQUALIFICATION: VOLUNTARY LEAVING WITHOUT GOOD CAUSE
The following statements generally describe the provisions of the Law concerning the issue of voluntary leaving without good cause. These statements should be used by agency personnel when explaining the issue to claimants, employers, and other interested parties.
The South Carolina Employment Security Law provides in Section 68 114 that an insured worker shall be held ineligible for an indefinite period if the Commission finds that he voluntarily left his most recent employment without good cause. The period of ineligibility shall begin on the effective date of the claim and shall continue until the worker has secured employment and shows to the satisfaction of the Commission that he has performed services in employment and earned wages equal to at least eight times the weekly benefit amount of his claim.
The South Carolina Supreme Court has interpreted the words “good cause” to mean a cause attributable to or connected with the claimant’s employment.
Personal reasons, therefore, do not constitute good cause for leaving.
