A divided opinion issued by the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania found that a full-time school bus driver did not qualify for unemployment benefits under the reasonable assurance doctrine.
Catherine C. Hall worked full time as a school bus driver for the Rose Tree Media School District since December 2021, according to the court’s Aug. 8 majority opinion. For the last five years, at least, Hall has volunteered to work summers in addition to the regular school year. In the summer of 2020, the school district informed Hall that there would be no bus driver work available due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but confirmed that Hall would have a position as a bus driver for the 2020-21 school year.
