Summary:

In CUB 10481, the Umpire extended the token engagement discussed in ABRAHAMS to the facts of that case by asking whether such engagement should disentitle the claimant.

Summary:

He had worked at that part-time employment for 16 months. Earnings were reported on cards following lay-off from full-time employment. At the time the stoppage of work commenced this was the sole employment held by him and, therefore, he is clearly disentitled under 31(1).

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute loss of employment while claiming ui
Summary:

After being terminated full-time, found part-time work while collecting UI. Part-time job then struck. This has been the subject of adverse comment by this Court. Insupportable on any rational appreciation of the policy of the Act. It is nevertheless the law.

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute loss of employment while claiming ui
Summary:

Second, since the loss of employment which gave rise to his initial claim in 12-83 was not caught by s.31, it is unjust to apply it in respect to the loss on 2-1-85 of his secondary employment accepted 20-11-84 to destroy his eligibility. One is not allowed to refuse suitable employment while on benefits. Claimant did what was required of him. He reported for work and then learned of the dispute. To now disqualify him would be plainly unjust, yet a strict reading of 31 appears to permit such conclusion.

Decision A-0090.81 Full Text of Decision A-0090.81

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
labour dispute loss of employment while claiming ui
Summary:

If Parliament had intended 44(1) to apply only to the loss of the last employment before the establishment of a benefit period, it would have said so as it has in s.41. A claimant who, after losing a full-time job by reason of a shortage of work, holds a part-time job while receiving UI is disentitled to any benefit if he loses that part-time job by reason of a stoppage of work due to labour dispute. Ss.44(1) may have been read by Umpire as not disentitling a claimant from UI he would have been entitled to if that employment had not been terminated due to the dispute. That interpretation would produce fair results but s.44 does not disentitle one ofonly a part of benefits.
