Summary:
In this case, the Commission held that the claimant had voluntarily left his employment without just cause. The Umpire reversed the decision of the BOR which had confirmed the decision of the Commission. The claimant had voluntarily left his employment to close his house for the winter and had not returned to work for two months. The FCA determined that the Umpire had failded to consider keys elements of the case and reiterated that the case law has consistently held that individuals who leave and, as a consequence, lose their employment cannot expect to receive employment insurance benefits.
