Summary:
The claimant did not report for work on the day following a discussion in which the employer informed him that he would be dismissed and afterwards went to the claimant's residence to collect his equipment. The Umpire says that the employer's position was clear, regardless of whether he had been fired or had quit, the claimant was no longer an employee and subparagraph 29 (c) (xiii) could be applied. The Umpire found that there was insufficient evidence on file either to prove that the claimant had left voluntarily or to demonstrate misconduct on the part of the claimant.
