Whether the insured breached the duty to make reasonable job-search efforts before re-registering for unemployment benefits.
Yes. The duty to search for work arises before unemployment begins and also applies during a stay abroad; no job-search efforts before 15 December 2009 were proven.
The court held that the obligation under Art. 26(2) OACI starts before unemployment and can be fulfilled from abroad using modern communication means. The insured did not dispute the absence of searches before re-registration.
