Summary:
The claimant signed an employment contract stipulating that he would be entitled to three weeks of paid holidays upon completing one year of service. A few months later, he requested vacation leave. His request was denied in part because the claimant did not complete one year of service. The record suggests that the claimant informed his employer that he would not report to work for the days in question, regardless of the fact that his leave request had been denied. The employer informed him that he had abandoned his employment. According to the FCA, the Commission clearly found that the event triggering the loss of employment was the voluntary act of insisting on taking days off without the consent of the employer.
