The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to amend a prior award concerning an industrial back injury. The amended award affirmed the original findings of temporary and permanent disability, but corrected a clerical error to include a credit for wages the applicant earned during the temporary disability period. The defendant's contention that they were not liable for temporary disability due to non-industrial causes was not the basis for the reconsideration granted, which focused on the credit for wages.
