Summary:
Cleaner who refused 4 job opportunities. In any event, the Commission's positions represented a drop in salary of about 25% from the claimant's previous wages. This is a substantial reduction for the Commission to expect after 7 weeks on claim. [p._10]
The Commission states that for unskilled labour, it considers 3 weeks to be an appropriate time after which one will have to accept lower wages. No explanation why this length of time has been chosen. Generally, the period allowed has been in the area of 2 to 3 months. [p._9]

Summary:
4 refusals at issue. 17 weeks was excessive in the circumstances. It seems unfair to present claimant with a number of vacancies for cleaning jobs, of which there are no doubt always plenty on the board, and then disqualify her consecutively for each ofthe positions.

warning prior to disentitlement |

Summary:
No evidence that the Commission warned claimant that her UI might be jeopardized by not applying for the jobs (at lower wages than she expected). The lack of warning by the Commission in itself could warrant setting aside the disentitlement (4 disqualifications). [p._9]
