Practice question
A valid comparable assignment without rank or benefit diminution is offered, but the worker declines solely because a preferred type of post is unavailable. May a tribunal ignore the offer and attribute all later nonassignment automatically to the employer?
- Yes; actual offers are always irrelevant.
- Yes; every worker preference binds all clients.
- No; therefore every refusal is automatically criminal.
- Yes; only elapsed time may be considered.
- No; the specific offer and refusal must be evaluated.
