Summary:
The claimant had to reduce his hours of employment and in so doing, the insurable hours decreased along with his insurable earnings. He had to leave his employment on a permanent basis because of illness; the Commission applied the provisions of subsection 14(4) of the Act and proceeded to calculate his earnings over the last period of employment. The claimant feels it is unfair the Commission calculated the rate on the basis of a reduced number of hours, from 40 to 30 hours. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.
