Eugene Clancy — ADJ8456662

Eugene Clancy, a stocker for Save Mart (permissibly self-insured), sustained an admitted August 29, 2011 industrial injury to his low back, psyche, sleep, sexual dysfunction, irritable bowel syndrome, and bladder. The WCJ found him permanently totally disabled and awarded lifetime PD indemnity at $487.44 per week. Save Mart petitioned for reconsideration, arguing the WCJ failed to adequately justify the PTD finding and that the applicant's vocational expert opinion was not substantial evidence. The WCAB affirmed the Findings and Award, adopting the WCJ's Report, finding that the vocational evidence from Mr. Malmuth constituted substantial evidence that applicant rebutted the scheduled rating under LeBoeuf, Ogilvie, and Dahl. The Board also granted applicant's petition to augment the record, admitting Dr. Larsen's July 24, 2019 psychiatric AME report as Exhibit 102.
