What is the impact of case law on a worker representative's claim for unfair dismissal?

Alberta, Canada


The following excerpt is from 2013-1021 (Re), 2013 CanLII 81846 (AB WCAC):

The worker representative included arguments based on the Gahir court case, Gahir v. Alberta (Workers' Compensation, Appeals Commission), 2009 ABCA 59. As we have found on the evidence that it was unreasonable for the worker to obtain employment over the periods in question, there is no need to consider the case law cited by the representative.
