Rationale Options	Each of these options will generate a different correspondence that will sent to the employer (pending review of this workflow – shown in next task). The different rationale options breakdown as follows: • Affirm – Reverse Liability: DEW agrees with the protest and reverses the original decision. • Reverse – Correct Liability: DEW stands by their original ruling and the appeal is ‘denied’. • Remand – Further action needed: This happens later in the process at the higher levels of a protest, when it is determined to send this protest back down to a lower level. This would happen after a protest has raised past first level of protest. • Modify – Further action needed: It is decided that the original decision needs to be re-examined and more work needs to be done. Not a complete approval or denial of the protest. • Dismiss – No additional action: The protest is dismissed due to any number of reasons including lack of response (or in the event a hearing date was sent and the parties did not appear), the protest is withdrawn or some other reason. • Untimely – No additional action: The protest was filed in an untimely manner and the explanation for untimeliness was not valid.
