Holmes v Fonterra (Work Aon)
Workplace Law Specialists successfully represented Ms Holmes, in two reviews under the Accident Compensation Act 2001. The reviewer found and agreed that the subacromial bursitis suffered was a workplace gradual process injury, thus Ms Holmes was entitled to receive coverage for her injury. No such finding had been made in a similar work environment (laboratory) before.
