CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Gallo Glass Company's petition for reconsideration, upholding a prior award finding applicant sustained industrial injury to his face, right shoulder, and related issues like sleeping problems, anxiety, and vision. While temporary disability was awarded for a specific period, permanent disability was deferred pending further evaluation, and future medical care was deemed necessary. The majority adopted the WCJ's report, finding sufficient evidence to link the anxiety, sleeping, and vision issues to the head injury, despite the defendant's arguments to the contrary.
