CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration of a decision finding no injury arising out of and in the course of employment. This denial was based on the Administrative Law Judge's report, which adopted the reasoning that the Panel QME's opinion constituted substantial evidence. The QME's thorough examination and review of records supported the conclusion that the applicant's subjective complaints were unrelated to her employment. Furthermore, the applicant's testimony was deemed not credible by the WCJ, especially when contrasted with HR testimony regarding company procedures.
