The applicant was injured in a 2018 motor vehicle accident and sought ongoing income replacement benefits (IRBs) beyond the 104-week mark, along with medical benefits, an award, and costs.
The respondent denied the IRBs, arguing the applicant could work part-time in alternative roles.
The Tribunal found that the applicant met the post-104 week test for IRBs because the alternative employment proposed by the respondent offered significantly less income and status than her pre-accident work, and her psychological impairments limited her to working only 6 to 10 hours per week.
However, the Tribunal dismissed the claims for metabolic testing, neuromonitoring, and physiotherapy due to insufficient evidence regarding their necessity and reasonable costs.
The claims for a special award and costs were also dismissed.
