Docket Number: Board No. 030763-16
Location: Boston
  • Employee: Said Ahmed v. City of Boston
  • Employer: City of Boston
  • Insurer: City of Boston

CALLIOTTE, J.  The self-insurer appeals from a decision ordering it to pay the employee § 34 temporary total incapacity benefits from December 28, 2016, to March 20, 2017, and § 35 benefits thereafter based on a minimum wage earning capacity of $10.00 per hour for 30 hours per week.  The self-insurer argues that the minimum wage earning capacity used by the judge is incorrect, and should be modified to $11.00 per hour.  The self-insurer also argues that the judge’s finding the employee was limited to working only 30 hours per week is not grounded in the evidence.  We summarily affirm on the second argument, but make the correction in the minimum wage as requested by the self-insurer.
