Anderton v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2012] NZACC 384
- Court
- District Court
Because the claimant declined to meaningfully participate in rehabilitation planning and the professional occupational and medical assessments reasonably supported a finding that he could perform four specified light/sedentary jobs for 30 or more hours per week, the Corporation did not fail its rehabilitation obligations and the decision finding vocational independence was upheld; appeal dismissed.
