If the employee is absent for a compelling reason, such as illness, the absence will be considered excused, even if it is counted as unexcused according to the employer's policy. However, an employee's violation of the employer's attendance policy does not automatically result in a finding of misconduct. Employment Security Administration, 266 Md. Whether an employer may be able to have the absent employee's duties performed by others is not relevant to the misconduct determination. Persistent or chronic absenteeism, where the absences are without notice or excuse and continue in the face of warnings constitutes gross misconduct.
