Summary:
Since the claimant had a temporary status, his vacation pay was paid at the end of his term of employment and as such, was allocated in accordance with Paragraphs 35(2) and 36(9) of the EI Regulations. The claimant contends that the Regulations amount to unfair discrimination under Paragraph 15(1) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. However, it is well established that a distinction based solely on an employee's status is not discriminatory.
