The applicant was involved in a motor vehicle accident and sought statutory accident benefits.
He failed to notify the insurer of his intention to apply for benefits within the seven-day time limit prescribed by section 32(1) of the Schedule, submitting his application over a year later.
The Tribunal found that the applicant did not provide a credible or reasonable explanation for the delay, rejecting his arguments that he was unaware of his injuries or his right to claim benefits.
The application was dismissed as statute-barred.
