The employer and the employee both appealed an Employment Standards Officer's Order to Pay.
The officer had directed the employer to pay vacation pay and unpaid wages, but found the employee was not entitled to termination pay due to wilful misconduct.
A hearing was scheduled, but the employee failed to appear.
The Ministry of Labour, supported by the employer, moved to dismiss the employee's appeal for abandonment.
The Board dismissed the employee's appeal due to his failure to appear.
Consequently, the employer withdrew its appeal with leave of the Board, and the funds held in trust were ordered to be disbursed to the employee and the Consolidated Revenue Fund.
