Summary:
Claimant worked 50 hours a week in mother's snack bar. Mother and claimant's girlfriend also worked there. A claimant really providing benevolent services does not work within the meaning of ss. 10(1). The essential condition for s. 44 to apply is the existence of an employer-employee relationship, and the fact that a worker receives or expects to receive a benefit of some kind for his work is at the very basis of this relationship. One of the main questions at issue was precisely whether or not the work performed by claimant was really benevolent, i.e. whether he really did not expect to receive any pecuniary advantage. Not considered work under ss. 10(1) if work is really benevolent in nature.
