ARSHED QAZI vs. THE BOEING COMPANY, ACE AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted Boeing's petition for reconsideration regarding a finding of 100% permanent disability for Arshed Qazi. The original award in April 2013 found Qazi sustained his injuries, including multiple physical conditions, while employed as a precision parts inspector. The Board is granting reconsideration to allow further study of the factual and legal issues to ensure a just and reasoned decision. Pending this review, all communications must be filed in writing with the Board's Commissioners.

ARSHED QAZI vs. THE BOEING COMPANY, ACE AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY

This case concerns Arshed Qazi's claim for 100% permanent disability due to an industrial injury sustained in 2005. The defendant, Boeing Company, sought reconsideration of the initial award, arguing the applicant failed to adequately rebut the permanent disability rating schedule. The appeals board rescinded the award and returned the case to the trial level for further proceedings. Issues to be addressed include whether the vocational expert's opinion considered non-industrial factors and developed the applicant's retirement circumstances and job market search limitations appropriately.
