Questão jurídica principal
Whether refusing to unload straw in a private horse stable during interim employment justified a suspension in unemployment benefits
Decisão extraída
A suspension is justified only if the claimant's assignment covered that work or he otherwise violated a duty to comply; the record did not clarify the contractual scope of the interim employment.
Fundamentação extraída
The lower authorities failed to clarify the agreed scope of work. Without knowing whether stable work was included or otherwise justified, it cannot be determined whether the refusal breached the duty to mitigate damage and thus triggered self-inflicted unemployment.
