Decision 70544 Full Text of Decision 70544

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
basic concepts benefit periods extension workers' compensation
Summary:

The claimant maintained that his benefit period should have been extended under section 10(10)(c) of the Act. The Commission determined that the claimant received $324 a week from the WHSCC, and because he was entitled to receive $345 a week in Employment Insurance benefits, he could not be considered ineligible for Employment Insurance benefits during the period when he was receiving workers' compensation from the WHSCC. The Commission determined that the claimant was entitled to receive $21.00 in benefits for each week during the period. The evidence shows that during no weeks of his benefit period could he not receive Employment Insurance benefits because he was collecting workers' compensation.


Decision S-1059.84

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
basic concepts benefit periods extension workers' compensation
Summary:

It is difficult to understand why two insured persons disentitled under s. 36 because incapable of work should be treated differently because one received worker's compensation. This anomaly should not be remedied by judicial intervention. An insured who has received worker's compensation in the supplementary phase of the benefit period is entitled to an extension even if he was disentitled under s. 36.
