Paragraph 83 Non-attendance at the hearing

In the case of the non-attendance of the claimant, if the arbitrator decides to adjourn the hearing, he or she may request, in writing, through the LRA that the claimant provides an explanation for the non-attendance. If the arbitrator decides that the claimant has not demonstrated sufficient cause for the non-attendance, he or she may rule in an award that the claim or claims be treated as dismissed.
