In re the Claim of Brown

—Appeal from a decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, filed August 24, 2000, which ruled that claimant was disqualified from receiving unemployment insurance benefits because she voluntarily left her employment without good cause.

Claimant was employed as a patient registrar and admissions clerk for a hospital until she resigned after three weeks, stating that she was leaving for personal reasons and due to family problems. Claimant subsequently indicated, however, that she left her employment because she was dissatisfied with her working conditions inasmuch as, inter alia, she had not anticipated that she would come in contact with sick patients.

Substantial evidence supports the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board’s ruling that claimant voluntarily left her employment without good cause. Notably, the Board found that claimant did not discuss her concerns about the working conditions with the employer at the time of her resignation. It is well settled that “[Resigning from employment because of general dissatisfaction with the job does not necessarily constitute good cause for leaving employment particularly where, as here, the claimant fails to protect his or her employment by bringing the concern to the employer’s attention prior to resign

Cardona, P. J., Crew III, Spain, Carpinello and Rose, JJ., concur. Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
