Summary:
The claimant is, by profession, a transport driver and had been so engaged at the time he was dismissed by the employer on an allegation he lost his licence as a result of being found impaired. This was a second suspension. His driver's licence was essential to preserve his job and continue work for his employer. The documentary evidence reflects the loss of the license for driving while impaired and the resulting dismissal. The appeal is dismissed by the Umpire.
