Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  just cause  definition 

Summary:

It is argued that the older jurisprudence has not been displaced by the recent amendments to 28(4). I am satisfied that the exclusive test of "just cause" is set out therein where it says that "just cause exists where, having regard to all the circumstances, claimant had no reasonable alternative".


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  new employment  delay between two jobs 

Summary:

I believe that means that the Board directed its mind as to whether the claimant had a reasonable alternative to quitting and it concluded that she did because until she had a firm arrangement for other employment she could and should have continued to work.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  applicability  employment  last 

Summary:

It is argued that "employment" under 28(3) refers to a preceding employment used to qualify her to benefit. The "claim for benefit" referred to in 28(3) is the report card. The last employment prior to submitting the report card is the employment to consider.
