Summary:
The claimant worked at three different locations for a total of 512 hours of insurable employment. She lives in a region where the unemployment rate is 11.5%. The number of hours of employment increases if the claimant has accumulated a violation in the 260 weeks (five years) preceding the initial claim for Employment Insurance benefits. In fact, the claimant needed 980 hours to qualify for benefits because of two previous violations. The claimant's appeal is dismissed.
