Lawrence E. Jahnke
2008 ND 79748 N.W.2d 394
Oral Argument 12/20/2007

Highlight

A worker's employment need not be the sole cause of injury to be compensable. It is sufficient if a work condition is a substantial contributing factor to the disease.
The fact that an employee may have physical conditions or personal habits which make him or her more prone to such an injury does not constitute a sufficient reason for denying a claim.
