Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
refusal of work  good cause 

Summary:

To establish good cause a claimant must demonstrate that a reasonably prudent person would have thought it justifiable to refuse paid employment even though he had no other job to go to.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
refusal of work  wages or salary 

Summary:

It is reasonably clear that the employer was seeking to take advantage of him by demanding that he return at his old wage, on threat of reporting him to the Commission. This does colour the whole situation and makes his decision not to return fully understandable in human terms.
