Section 31-236-57 - Eligibility of an individual in training approved under the Trade Act of 1974

(a) The Administrator shall not deny benefits to an otherwise eligible individual for any week because he is in training approved under Section 236 (a) (1) of the Trade Act of 1974, or because he left work to enter such training, provided the work left is not suitable work, or because, during any week he was in such training, the Administrator found he was unavailable for work, failed to make reasonable efforts to obtain work or refused to accept work.

(b) For purposes of this regulation, "suitable work" means, with respect to an individual, work of a substantially equal or higher skill level than the individual's past adversely affected employment, as defined for purposes of the Trade Act of 1974, and wages for such work at not less than eighty percent of the individual's average weekly wage as determined for purposes of the Trade Act of 1974.
