Summary:
According to the claimant, he was fired for issuing a complaint via the “intermail” on site. According to the employer, the claimant was in his 6 months probationary period. The claimant did sign the “Attendance and Punctuality Policy” which proves that he knew how important the attendance and punctuality was to the Company. He signed all the written warnings and he was aware of the consequence of what could happen if he did not respect his work schedule. The Commission concluded that claimant’s actions constituted misconduct within the meaning of the Act, because those actions were considered to be so negligent as to be considered wilful. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.
