What was disputed, and how it came out
Each issue the panel decided, with the reasoning it gave. An outcome is what this panel did on this record — not a rule, and not a prediction.
The WCJ properly applied Labor Code section 4453(c)(4) considering the temporary nature of employment and all surrounding circumstances, rejecting the applicant's argument for mandatory use of section 4453(c)(1).
The facts that decided it
What the panel treated as outcome-determinative, and which side it favoured.
Applicant was employed through a temporary agency with temporary assignments, not permanent full-time employment.
Favours Defendant prevailed
This made the first three subsections of Labor Code section 4453(c) methods inapplicable, requiring consideration of all surrounding circumstances under section 4453(c)(4).
