Head Matter:
Doris Ann ARMSTRONG, Appellant, v. UNEMPLOYMENT APPEALS COMMISSION and Atlas Industrial Service, Inc., Appellees.
No. 82-625.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
March 2, 1983.
Larry Morgan, of Greater Orlando Area Legal Services, Inc., Orlando, for appellant.
James R. Parks and Norman A. Blessing, Tallahassee, for appellee Unemployment Appeals Com’n.
No appearance for appellee Atlas.

Opinion:
DAUKSCH, Judge.
Upon review it is clear that appellee Atlas Industrial Service, Inc. was justified in terminating appellant from employment on account of her failure to follow company procedures and because she exhibited a disloyalty to her employer. However, it is also clear that her misconduct did not amount to the willful or wanton disregard of employee duty which would support a denial of unemployment benefits. See Erber v. Federal Express Corp., 409 So.2d 522 (Fla. 5th DCA 1982).
The order of the commission is reversed and the commission is directed to award proper unemployment benefits to appellant.
REVERSED.
SHARP, J., concurs.
BROWNLEE, JACKSON 0., Associate Judge, dissents with opinion.
