Pagina 55 - The causative danger must be peculiar to the work and not common to the neighborhood. It must be incidental to the character of the business and not independent of the relation of master and servant. It need not have been foreseen or expected, but after the event it must appear to have had its origin in a risk connected with the employment, and to have flowed from that source as a rational consequence.
Pagina 55 - It is sufficient to say that an injury -is received 'in the course of' the employment when it comes while the workman is doing the duty which he is employed to perform. It arises ' out of ' the employment, when there is apparent to the rational mind upon consideration of all the circumstances, a causal connection between the conditions under which the work is required to be performed and the resulting injury.
Pagina 110 - The pecuniary liability of the employer for the treatment and other service herein required shall be limited to such charges as prevail in the same community for similar treatment of injured persons of a like standard of living when such treatment is paid for by the injured person.
Pagina 50 - accident," as used in this act shall, unless a different meaning is clearly indicated by the context, be construed to mean an unexpected or unforeseen event happening suddenly and violently, with or without human fault and producing at the time objective symptoms of an injury.

Pagina 55 - arises out of" the employment, when there is apparent to the rational mind, upon consideration of all the circumstances, a causal connection between the conditions under which the work is required to be performed and the resulting injury. Under this test, if the injury can be seen to have followed as a natural incident of the work and to have been contemplated by a reasonable person familiar with the whole situation as a result of the exposure occasioned by the nature of the employment, then it arises...

Pagina 55 - the employment. But it excludes an injury which can not fairly be traced to the employment as a contributing proximate cause and which comes from a hazard to which the workmen would have been equally exposed apart from the employment. The causative danger must be peculiar to the work and not common to the neighborhood. It must be incidental to the character of the business and not independent of the relation of master and servant.
Pagina 99 - First. As a rule an employer is more competent to judge the efficiency of the doctor employed and to provide efficient medical and surgical treatment. Second. It is to the interest of the employer to furnish the very best medical and surgical treatment, so as to minimize the result of the injury and to secure as early a recovery as possible. The- more serious the result of the injury, the more the employer must pay. Also by this means he obtains a complete knowledge of the exact condition of the...
Pagina 64 - States, however, provide fixed lump sums or pensions for certain injuries, but apply the percentage system to all others. In most of the States the prescribed percentage remains uniform for all injuries. A few States have varying percentages for different types of injuries, and in several the percentage varies with conjugal condition and number of children. Using as a basis the rates for temporary total disability, it appears that 50 per cent of the employees...
