Summary:
After working as a part-time primary school teacher from August 2006 to June 2007, the claimant indicated that he received and accepted an offer of employment in teaching on June 15, 2007 for the 2007-2008 school year. The Board found that the claimant was eligible to receive benefits because he was a part-time teacher. The Umpire, referring to previous case law stated that a part-time contract is not synonymous with teaching on a "casual or substitute basis". He concluded that the facts in the docket do not show that the working relationship was severed between the teaching contracts for 2006-2007 and 2007-2008, and that the claimant did not satisfy any of the conditions set out in section 33(2) of the Regulations.
