GIBSON v ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CORPORATION [2016] NZHC 1003

- Court
- High Court
The Court held as a matter of law that "employment" in s 103(2) includes the total duration of work performed at the time of injury including overtime, so overtime earnings may be relevant to determining incapacity and weekly compensation; factual questions about whether the claimant was in fact unable to perform that work remain for determination.
