Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  just cause  no reasonable alternative 

Summary:

Employer consistently manipulated accounting so that claimant was not paid all his commissions. I do not see how it can be suggested that it is a reasonable alternative to require an employee to remain with an employer who is cheating him until he can find alternative employment.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  working conditions  salary  financial difficulties 

Summary:

The jurisprudence has consistently held that where an employer does not pay an employee the agreed upon wage, the employee has just cause for leaving, providing of course that the underpayment is not an inadvertent error and that claimant has given the employer an opportunity to amend the situation.
