Poihegatama v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2015] NZACC 23
- Court
- District Court
Working part-time to care for a child does not constitute 'unpaid parental leave' for the purposes of clause 44(2); the appellant was an earner in permanent employment with earnings immediately before incapacity, so clause 34 governed the weekly compensation calculation; ACC's calculation under clause 34 was correct.
