Summary:
The Commission had extended the rate calculation period by 12 weeks by reason of the claimant's absence from work due to illness. This allowed for an increase from $164 to $ 296 in the weekly benefit rate. The Board erred in adding another week of earnings outside the rate calculation period and its extension in order to increase the weekly benefit rate.
