ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 13th day of March, 2019, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by Petitioner is:

Should this Court exercise its supervision to provide the controlling interpretation of the phrase "customarily engaged in an independent business" to define "employment" in the Unemployment Compensation Law in order to resolve the inconsistent interpretations of the Commonwealth Court as to a definition that is fundamental to the administration of the [Unemployment Compensation] program and thus of significant public importance?
