Summary:
The claimant was employed as a cash room operator by G4S Cash Services Limited where she received and counted cash deposits and entered the amounts on a computerized system. On May 5, 2009, there was a discrepancy of $3,000 between the amount collected from a client and the final figure entered on Ms. Masic’s computer. Following a security investigation, her employment was terminated on May 14, 2009. After a work-place investigation, the claimant's employment was terminated. The BOR found that the claimant had failed to inform and consult her supervisor as required, failed to follow proper procedure in entering amounts of money, and failed to report that she had minused out $3,000 from the deposit. The BOR estimated that Ms. Masic’s mishandling of $3,000 constituted a breach of such scope that it was so reckless as to constitute misconduct. The FCA held that that the BOR correctly interpreted the legal test.
