Harwood v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1995] NZACC 64
- Court
- District Court
Because the appellant was on paid stand‑by, took the call and was performing an employment task from the vehicle which the Court found to be a place of employment, and because the accident would not have occurred but for the detour made in response to the call, the injury arose out of and in the course of employment under s6 and is therefore a work injury; s3(f) exclusion did not apply.
