Summary:
The claimant worked for X Québec Inc. from October 19, 2005 to June 10, 2009, when he voluntarily left his employment. According to the claimant, he left his employment to obtain his competency card, which would allow him to work in the construction field. He still has to take a French test and the General Development Test (GDT). According to the Commission, the claimant did not have a guarantee of other employment when he voluntarily left his job. The fact that he started another job eight weeks later does not constitute just cause for voluntarily leaving his employment. The Commission's appeal is allowed by the Umpire.
