Kansalaisopiston päätoimisen tuntiopettajan työsuhde oli päättynyt. Opiston työkausi oli päättynyt 23.4.1989. 24.4.-15.5.1989 hän oli ottanut vielä vastaan 13 tuntia kestäneen osa-aikatyön. Kun hakijaa ei ollut mainittujen päivien väliseksi ajaksi työttömyysturvalain 17 §:n mukaisesti lomautettu, hänellä ei ollut tältä ajalta oikeutta soviteltuun työttömyyspäivärahaan. Työttömyysturvalautakunnan päätöstä ei muutettu. (Äänestys 3-2) VI-jaosto
