Summary:
It has been a practice for the employer since the beginning of the plant’s operations to artificially create seasonal jobs. Two teams of employees would share the work over two six-month periods. During the “rest period”, the employees, including the claimant, claimed and received employment insurance benefits. The SST-Appeal Division determined that the claimant did not voluntarily quit her job. The SST-AD could reasonably conclude that the respondents did not choose to refuse to work so that other employees could work in their place. It was determined that the findings of fact made by the SST-AD are reasonable since they are supported by the testimony heard and the documentary evidence on the record. The application for judicial review was dismissed.
