PHILLIP WARD vs. CITY OF FORT BRAGG, REDWOOD EMPIRE MUNICIPAL INSURANCE FUND

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and amended an award, finding the defendant liable for a 15% increase in permanent disability benefits. This increase is due to the defendant's failure to offer the applicant qualified work within 60 days of his permanent and stationary status, as required by Labor Code section 4658(d)(2). While the applicant had retired, the Board found this did not excuse the employer from making a compliant work offer. The amended order clarifies the increase applies only to payments made 60 days after the Qualified Medical Evaluator's permanent and stationary report.
