Summary:
Claimant was hired with his truck on a monthly basis. The agreement provides that the employer would use the truck for a minimum number of hours each day and it would compensate claimant for overtime use at a higher rate. Problems arose concerning the use of the truck and the employer decided to discontinue its use but would have permitted the claimant to continue his job. Claimant decided to leave. Umpire found that the agreement although informal was nevertheless bending in law. He concluded that the agreement was breached by the employer and that the act on the part of the employer provided the claimant just cause for leaving his employement.
