Summary:
Clmt was in receipt of wage loss benefits provided under a plan that is only portable among school boards in the province. Umpire ruled that the the plan was not a group plan based on his interpretation that the wording "portable within the same occupation" stipulated in EIR 57(5) means, with respect to an occupation that is subject to provincial or territorial licensing or regulation, within the same occupation in the province or territory where the clmt is licensed or otherwise qualified, is employed, and is enrolled in a wage-loss indemnity plan.
