Summary:
Claimant reduced her working hours in order to ensure carrying her pregnancy to full term. She was insured under a wage loss insurance plan and received weekly indemnity payments under that plan which supplemented her wages. Claimant contends that the payments ought to be considered insured earnings and be taken into account in calculating her weekly rate. Request denied by Commission. BOR allowed claimant's appeal but Umpire held that BOR had no jurisdiction as that jurisdiction by statute is reserved for resolution to Revenue Canada.
