Employee's appeal for unpaid wages and overtime dismissed due to lack of evidence.
The applicant employee appealed a decision of an Employment Standards Officer refusing to issue an Order to Pay for unpaid wages and overtime pay.
At the hearing, the applicant requested an adjournment because his lawyer was unavailable, which the Board denied as it was the second request and no prior notice was given.
On the merits, the Board dismissed the claim for overtime pay due to a lack of evidence that the employer's records were altered.
The Board also dismissed the claim for unpaid wages for a two-week period in January 1998, finding based on witness testimony that the applicant was present at the workplace but did not perform any work.
