Decision  Michael A. Andrews v. Southern Berkshire Janitorial Services

Date: 11/27/2002
Organization: Department of Industrial Accidents
Docket Number: DIA Board No. 047563-98
Location: Boston
  • Employee: Michael A. Andrews
  • Employer: Southern Berkshire Janitorial Services
  • Insurer: Savers Property and Casualty Insurance Co.

MCCARTHY, J. The insurer appeals from a decision of an administrative judge awarding § 34A permanent and total incapacity benefits, making several arguments. First, the insurer alleges that the § 11A medical examiner did not offer an opinion on whether the employee was permanently and totally incapacitated. Second, the insurer contends that the judge failed to consider the vocational testimony and labor market survey it submitted. In addition, the insurer argues that the judge erred by failing to address a motion requesting a finding of complexity and a motion to vacate the hearing decision. Finding no error, we affirm the decision.
