Episode 12
Just because an injury by accident occurred, that does not mean that there is a causal connection to the employment. A claimant must prove that the injury arose out of the employment for it to be compensable. This episode will provide an initial overview as to how an injury arises out of the employment in North Carolina. Future episodes will apply that standard to specific instances, including workplace assaults, horseplay, social activities, idiopathic conditions and pre-existing conditions. This episode will serve as a primer for those discussions.
