LC §4660.1

Summary

Applicant Arsen Hakobyan, a security officer, claimed industrial injuries including psychiatric injury, sexual dysfunction, and orthopedic injuries across two consolidated cases. The WCJ's December 21, 2023 Findings of Fact and Award found a compensable psychiatric injury, applied the Labor Code section 4660.1(c)(2)(B) exception, and awarded permanent disability for sexual dysfunction. Defendant petitioned for reconsideration, and the WCJ in her Report conceded that AME/PQME Dr. Wexler's reporting on psychiatric causation was unclear and that she erred in awarding PD for sexual dysfunction. The WCAB granted reconsideration, rescinded the decision, and returned the matter to the trial level to develop the record on psychiatric causation and the 'catastrophic' exception, and to correct the sexual dysfunction PD error. This is not a final decision on the merits.
