Description
In this worker's compensation appeal, the trial court found the employee had suffered a 65 percent permanent partial disability
as a result of an occupational lung disease. The employer insists there is no material evidence to support the trial court's
finding on causation and permanent disability. We disagree and affirm. The employee-plaintiff, Jerry Johnson, aged 41, has a high school education. Since high school, he has worked in a variety
of jobs requiring physical labor and possesses no special job skills. He was first employed by the defendant-employer, Midwesco,
in April of 1978 in an unskilled capacity and has worked since then primarily in semi-skilled job classifications. At the
time of trial he was still employed by Midwesco in a semi-skilled capacity.
