Summary:
A three months' leave was approved but the claimant took four months without having received approval for the last month. Held that there was no obligation to go behind the decision in order to assess the fairness of the decision. When someone asks for leave which is denied, the failure to respect the employer's requirement is recognized as a breach of trust between employer and employee, which is misconduct per se.
