Description
Eduardo Sanchez worked as a farm laborer and was laid off for approximately the same few months each year. He challenges a Court of Appeals decision affirming his employment classification as "exclusively seasonal in nature" for purposes of workers compensation. In some cases, including employment that is "exclusively seasonal in nature," time-loss benefits are based on average monthly wages earned over a previous 12-month period. In cases where such income averaging does not apply, time-loss benefits are based on monthly wages the worker was receiving at the time of injury. Sanchez argues that his employment is not "exclusively seasonal in nature." We agree. The Court of Appeals decision is reversed and this matter is remanded to the Department of Labor and Industries (Department) for reclassification.
