voluntarily leaving employment  new employment  temporary 

Summary:

The claimant had voluntarily left her full-time permanent employment with Erb to accept an ECE on-call temporary position with a school board. She worked as an ECE from October to December 2011, when she was laid off due to shortage of work. The Commission determined that she had voluntarily left her employment with Erb without just cause. In allowing the application for judicial review, the FCA stated that it is settled law that while it is legitimate for a worker to change the nature of their work, this cannot be done at the expense of the EI fund, and does not constitute just cause for leaving employment.
