voluntarily leaving employment  just cause  harassment  generalities 

Summary:

The claimant was disqualified for leaving her employment, claiming she was harassed. The Court stated that, under subsection 49(2) of the Act, the benefit of the doubt would only apply in favour of a claimant, where the evidence on each side is equally balanced. The Court found that this rule of evidence cannot apply as it was clear there were reasonable alternatives open to the claimant before leaving her employment.
