Summary:
The claimant was scheduled to work on July 12, 2007 but he failed to show up for work or to contact the employer. The claimant did not show up for work on July 12, 2007 due to the fact that he had a relapse in his drug use. The employer told the Commission that he worked as a support worker and given his relapse he was no longer a good example. The Commission determined that the claimant's absence from work due to his drug use constituted misconduct within the meaning of the Employment Insurance Act because he was in direct violation of the employer's policy and failed to meet the conditions of his employment.
