McCARTHY, J. In this appeal, the employees challenge an administrative judge's decision finding they failed to meet their burden of proving that any of them suffered a "personal injury" under G. L. c. 152, §26, following exposure to asbestos. For the following reasons, we affirm the judge's decision, and, like the judge, leave it open to the employees to bring new claims should their exposure eventually result in injuries.
