(a)over a period of one year; or
(b)where the applicant has recently become engaged in that employment or there has been a change which is likely to affect the normal pattern of business, over any other period (“computation period”) as may, in the particular case, enable the weekly amount of the applicant’s earnings to be determined more accurately.
(2) For the purposes of determining the weekly amount of earnings of an applicant to whom paragraph (1)(b) applies, the applicant’s earnings over the computation period must be divided by the number of days in that period and the quotient must be multiplied by 7.
(3) The period over which the weekly amount of an applicant’s earnings must be calculated in accordance with this regulation is the applicant’s assessment period.
