Summary:
Once a sufficient notice of hearing has been given, proceeding with the hearing in the claimant's absence does not constitute a breach of the audi alterem partem rule for it is the claimant's undoubted right not to attend the hearing if such be the claimant's choice.

Summary:
Held in CUB 14805 that 2 days is sufficient notice of hearing. That cannot be regarded as a settled rule, at least it cannot if the claimant be again working at the time scheduled, for such a short period quite possibly would not accord sufficient time to arrange for leave.

Summary:
Logger. No dry room and had to go to work with wet clothes. Meals not cooked until 9:00 p.m. Had to ride on a skidder. Uncontradicted evidence accepted. Conditions not tolerable enough to wait for the WCB to take action. Intolerably risky to good healthand reasonable safety.
