availability for work restrictions work at home

Claimant was allowed 12 weeks to find employment that would accommodate her restriction of working at home. Since the labour market survey indicated there were limited possibilities of obtaining such employment, these 12 weeks must be seen as a reasonable period of time.

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work restrictions work at home
Summary:

A person who places a condition on her availability such that she will only do work at her own home takes herself out of such a large portion of the labour market that, in my view, the Board in this case was justified in concluding that she was indeed not available for work.

Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work restrictions work at home
Summary:

Secretary laid off by reason of shortage of work. Only available for work at her home because she has 4 children ranging from 12 to 6 years of age. Did not contact any prospective employers. This clearly shows that she was not available: unduly limitingher chances of employment.
