Summary:
Claimant is paid for 10 weeks and during the rest of the year she provides her services on a voluntary basis while receiving benefits. Umpire concluded that her work was not entirely disinterested because she derives a benefit from it, namely, the hope of being paid for 10 weeks each year. Paying her benefits would be like subsidizing the work she does for the corporation.

Summary:
Claimant is paid for 10 weeks and during the rest of the year she provides her services on a voluntary basis while receiving benefits. According to the Umpire, the BOR erred in describing this as volunteer work. BOR did not consider that she derived a benefit, namely the hope of being paid for 10 weeks each year. Therefore, her motives for doing the work are not entirely disinterested.
