RICARDA DURAN SONIA TINEO TOLEDO vs. PRIORITY WORKFORCE, INC. dba MVP PAYROLL FINANCING LLC, PRIORITY BUSINESS SERVICES INC., UNITED WISCONSIN INSURANCE COMPANY administered by NEXT LEVEL ADMINISTRATORS

This case involves an applicant injured by a car while waiting for a ride home on her employer's premises after work. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration and found the injury compensable, holding that it arose out of and occurred in the course of employment (AOE/COE). The Board clarified that the applicant's presence on employer premises while waiting for transportation home was within the scope of employment, not a material deviation. The WCAB rescinded the prior order and substituted a new one finding AOE/COE injury to the applicant's head, deferring other issues.
