Bray Frampton Limited v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation

- Court
- District Court
The court accepted the medical evidence that the worker had mild bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome and that the worker's repetitive employment duties could have caused it; the limited, prior, unilateral car sanding was insufficient to account for a bilateral condition and therefore did not materially undermine the causal link to employment, so the review officer's acceptance of the work injury was upheld.
