Previous case question – Service Canada Employment Insurance Ruling
Ask the ExpertPrevious case question – Service Canada Employment Insurance Ruling
Conner Lantz asked 5 years ago
I recall reading an article on HR Insider and am not sure if I am making it up or if it really did happen. I am hoping you will be able to track down the case or prove my memory to be incorrect. I recall an employer receiving a letter from Service Canada stating that the reason for separation from employment of a former employee was approved, and that as the employer, you have a certain allotment of time to make a request for reconsideration to the Commission. This employer ended up receiving a law suit resulting from the dismissal, and the court ruled that because the employer didn't argue the ruling delivered by Service Canada, it was not eligible to be heard in court. Do you recall any scenario even similar to this?  Thank you
