Summary:
The Act, including section 24(3), requires that a claimant must work a minimum of hours in a week to be eligible for benefits for work-sharing for the days he does not work during that week. To arrive at the conclusion sought by the claimants, there would be a need to have the days paid pursuant to the collective agreement (for bereavement) deemed to be days where the claimants have rendered services. Nothing in the Act nor in the Regulations allows such a fiction. Claimants are not eligible for benefits for work-sharing for the week of their leave for bereavement (similar case: A0037.13).
