Summary:
The claimant had accepted a job in Iqaluit, Nunavut for a period of 40 days. The claimant arrived on the work site on August 6, 2009, but quit three days later and went home. His explanation for leaving was that in his opinion, the surveying equipment made available to him was not functioning properly. He also stated that on leaving, he had the assurance of another employment. In the end, however, he did not start that job until August 24.The supervisor affirmed that the claimant wanted to leave because he was homesick. The claimant had purchased his return plane ticket before even telling his supervisor about the equipment possibly being faulty, which was doubtful. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.

Summary:
Reasonable assurance of another employment has been interpreted by Umpires to mean reasonable assurance of other job that is either f/t or which pays enough that no burden falls on others because the employee does not seek benefits to make up for a shortfall in income.

Summary:
Claimant must have reasonable assurance of another job before terminating existing employment. The mere expectation of a job on the basis of a friend's hearsay promise does not constitute just cause within S.28 of the UI Act. No evidence that claimant had ever had any contact with alleged employer.

Summary:
The fact that claimant did not search for employment before she left Regina to move to Quebec is not significant in this case. She did not do so because the distance between the two places is so great. To seek alternate employment before leaving is not required when it is impractical to do so.
