misconduct  proof 

Summary:

Misconduct must be real cause of dismissal and not merely excuse. Evidence must be detailed and not be based solely on opinion of employer. Nothing in the Act to indicate that burden of proof demanded in criminal cases [beyond a reasonable doubt] must be imposed within context of this social legislation. Balance of probabilities is sufficient. This burden rests on the Commission. Cited DAVLUT.
