Decision  Vikki L. Harris v. Massachusetts General Hospital

Date: 09/03/2015
Organization: Department of Industrial Accidents
Docket Number: DIA Board No. 033040-11
Location: Boston
  • Employee: Vikki L. Harris
  • Employer: Massachusetts General Hospital
  • Self Insurer: Partners Healthcare System, Inc.

HARPIN, J. The self-insurer appeals from a decision awarding the employee § 34 benefits, utilizing an average weekly wage based on higher wages the employee would have earned in a new position, rather than based on the fifty two weeks of wages earned prior to the industrial accident. We reverse so much of the decision as awards the higher benefit, and affirm the remainder.
