Summary:
The Commission determined that the claimant had not accumulated enough hours of insurable employment to be entitled to benefits. The claimant unfortunately had been seriously ill and without work for some 24 months. He needed to have accumulated 910 insurable hours in order to be entitled to benefits. His return to work was unsuccessful; his employer did not want to keep him on. The claimant wants his qualifying period to be extended. The Commission granted the maximum extension permitted by the Act in respect of the qualifying period, for a total of 104 weeks prior to the benefit. The appeal is dismissed by the Umpire.
