The Claimant applied for a review of the Administrator's determination denying her claim for sickness benefits under the Employment Insurance Sickness Benefits Class Action Settlement Agreement.
The Claimant sought sickness benefits for a five-week period during which she was receiving maternity benefits, not parental benefits.
The Court upheld the Administrator's determination, finding that the Claimant did not meet the class definition because the illness occurred while she was on maternity leave, whereas the class definition requires the illness to have occurred while in receipt of parental benefits.
