Browne v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1995] NZACC 26
- Court
- District Court
Sampling and biting food repeatedly in the course of employment as a chef is a special or exceptional occupational use of the teeth, not the 'natural use of those teeth' within s.10(2)(b); therefore the statutory exclusion does not apply and the appellant is entitled to cover, so the Corporation's decision declining cover is revoked.
