Summary:
The claimant had refused to sign an employee contract with clause number 21 prohibiting employees from participating in demonstrations against the employer. She stated that she had worked for her employer for some 32 years and that her previous employee contract had not contained any clause comparable to the new proposed clause 21. The contract stated that an employee who refused to abide by a reasonable request of his employer, such as signing an agreement, is dismissed. The claimant has lost her employment as a result of her own misconduct. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.
