Injury / body parts: cervical spine, left arm, right arm, left shoulder, right shoulder, left elbow, right elbow, left wrist, right wrist

LC §5500.5LC §5412

Summary

Juan Angel, a 67-year-old custodian at Westmont College and cashier at Rite Aid, claimed a cumulative trauma injury to his cervical spine and bilateral upper extremities. The WCJ issued a Findings and Award finding injury AOE/COE, 80% PD plus a life pension, no apportionment, and a Labor Code section 5412 date of injury of February 27, 2018. Defendants Guideone and Church Mutual petitioned for reconsideration. The Board granted reconsideration, adopting the WCJ's Report, but corrected Finding of Fact No. 14 to hold that under section 5500.5 the liability period runs February 27, 2017 to February 27, 2018 (one year preceding the section 5412 date), because that date occurred before the last day of injurious exposure of June 1/8, 2018. The matter was returned to the trial level for a new commutation and recalculation of attorney fees (the WCJ had used an incorrect date of birth) and reissuance of the award.
