Summary:

Claimant was working in a bar that she owned with her husband. Stopped receiving wages on 25-12-92, but continued to provide services free of charge (14 hours/week). Termination of employment is one of the requirements for entitlement to benefit. Therefore, even if wages ceased to be paid, the employment relationship was maintained. The employment was therefore not terminated.

Summary:

Claimant was working in a bar that she owned with her husband. Stopped receiving wages on 25-12-92, but continued to provide services free of charge (14 hours/week). Her employment was therefore not terminated. Even if there had been a break in employment, her direct interest in the company did not allow her to claim that she had become a volunteer worker within the meaning of the Act.
