Summary:
Claimant did not provide a medical certificate justifying his absence, in contravention of the agreement he had signed with his employer. Said he had the document but procrastinated in handing it in. According to the BOR, the claimant was guilty of negligence rather than misconduct. Error of law, according to the Umpire. Claimant had contravened the signed agreement and had been careless in respecting it.
