Summary:
The claimant took leave for exactly 84 days expecting to receive 12 weeks of parental benefits. He only received 9 weeks of benefits. He had to serve a waiting period of 2 weeks. As a shift worker whose work week varied from the calendar week of the EI legislation, the claimant argued that the legislation infringed his rights under the Charter. The Umpire found otherwise.
