Summary:
Claimant quit because her wages were not paid on time - her employer's computer systems had been infected by a virus. The employer corrected the situation within two working days and compensated for the delay by paying the then current week's pay in advance of the regular pay day. The Umpire found that the claimant had the reasonable alternative of being more patient with her employer in the circumstances and allowed the employer's appeal.
