Kernohan Engineering Limited v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1999] NZACC 13
- Court
- District Court
The review officer's factual findings that the accident occurred were supported by demonstrations and medical reports showing causation consistent with the worker's account; the worker's delayed reporting and ability to complete the day did not negate contemporaneous medical evidence or the credibility of his explanation; therefore the injury arose out of and in the course of employment under ss3 and 6 and the appeal is dismissed.
