Docket Number:	DIA Board No. 007254-08
Location:	Boston

• Claimant: Daniel J. Thompson (1)
• Employer: Raytheon Corporation
• Self Insurer: Raytheon Corporation

KOZIOL, J. The claimant appeals from a decision denying and dismissing his claim for worker’s compensation benefits on the ground the Department of Industrial Accidents lacks jurisdiction to adjudicate his claim. We affirm.

¹  For the reasons discussed infra, although the employer employed Mr. Thompson at all relevant times, he is not a “covered” employee under our Act; accordingly, we refer to him as the “claimant.”
