Summary:
The claimant left his employment fearing his employer's bankruptcy and did not want to take the risk of losing his pension fund or having it frozen until he was 65 years old. The Umpire confirmed the decision of the Board of Referees finding that the claimant's personal choice, which he had made because of a certain risk associated with his accumulated pension fund, was not just cause within the meaning of the legislation or case law.
