THEMAS BERGE vs. UNION BANK OF CALIFORNIA, ZURICH AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY
This case involved a petition for reconsideration by applicant Themas Berge. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration and affirmed the original decision of August 22, 2014. However, the WCAB amended Finding of Fact No. 4 to detail specific periods of compensable temporary disability. Crucially, the amended finding clarifies the weekly payment rates for temporary disability, specifying that payments within two years of injury were at $490.00, and any currently accrued, unpaid temporary disability is payable at $597.86.
