UNEMPLOYMENT APPEALS COMMISSION, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed March 6, 2009 Administrative Appeal from the Unemployment Appeals Commission. Jason H. Clark, West Palm Beach, for Appellant. John D. Maher, Tallahassee, for Appellee. GRIFFIN, J. Appellant, Associated Diving and Marine Contractor, L.C. ["Employer"], appeals the final order of the Unemployment Appeals Commission ["UAC"] affirming the decision of the appeals referee awarding Appellee, Robert Corbitt ["Employee"], unemployment benefits. Employer argues, contrary to the UAC's decision, that the evidence proves that Employee voluntarily quit his employment without good cause attributable to the Employer. Employer alternatively argues that since the claimant left his employment for personal reasons consisting of illness or disability, he is not eligible for unemployment benefits chargeable to Employer. Having examined the record, there is substantial, Case No. 5D08-2006

competent evidence to support the decision of the appeals referee that Employee left his job for reasons attritubable to his employer. We affirm. AFFIRMED. LAWSON and COHEN, JJ., concur.
