Warren v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2005] NZACC 225
- Court
- District Court
Clause 34(2)'s phrase "earnings as an employee (from employment with that employer)" does not require earnings to be from permanent employment; the difference in wording between subclauses (1) and (2) is deliberate and the Court is bound to apply the clear statutory language, so the Reviewer's confirmation of ACC's calculation is correct and the appeal is dismissed.
