Summary:
Claimant's employment, which paid $9.36 per hour plus a shift premium of $0.85 for night shifts, was cancelled. He was offered a new position at $8.84 (this constituted a reduction of 6%) and he refused it. Disqualified for having left his job without just cause. The BOR concluded that a reduction of 6% was a significant change in the working conditions. The Umpire, relying on CUBs 35206 and 39547, found that the BOR had erred in law in its finding.
