Summary:
Claimant took a year of leave without pay from her job where she worked an average of 25 to 30 hours per week, so that she would be available to work part time at the health centre, which offered more hours of work in the summer and a higher rate of pay than the cooperative. The case law has established that leaving permanent employment for part-time or on-call employment does not constitute just cause within the meaning of the Act even if the new job offers better pay and benefits. As per the Umpire, the Commission's appeal is allowed.

Summary:
Claimant quit her full-time job to be available on the call-back list for a part-time job with a School Board which was more advantageous in terms of benefits and salary. She offered her old employer to work on the days when she was not on call at the School Board. The umpire concluded that, in accepting work where the hours were neither planned nor scheduled on a consistent basis, the claimant caused her own unemployment.

Summary:
Claimant held a full-time job and a part-time job at the hospital for which she had been trained. The claimant had the choice to make herself available in her full-time job as required by the employer but chose not to do because she did not want to stop her part-time work at the hospital. Whether the claimant's decision constituted voluntarily leaving or a dismissal does not change the fact that it is her decision that led to become unemployed.

Summary:
CUBs 21465A and 21694 referred to. Here claimant is only working 2 days a week plus 4 days in Vancouver. He has not been promised full-time employment. It may eventually turn into a full-time position but we do not know when and consequently the jurisprudence is very clear. This is not just cause.

Summary:
Even if I were to find that claimant was reasonably assured of having new employment when she resigned, that employment was only for 1_1/2 days a week and thus she would not have been entitled, in any event, to place on others the burden of her unemployment for the remaining part of the week.
