Tavenner v. Georgia-Pacific Corp‪.‬

This is an appeal by the claimant from a circuit court order affirming an order on review of the Workers' Compensation Board (Board). A determination order, issued on October 31, 1975, awarded claimant 32 degrees of permanent partial disability, 10 percent of the maximum allowable for unscheduled shoulder disability. Pursuant to a hearing a referee increased the award to 160 degrees equal to 50 percent of the maximum allowable. In its order on review the Board reduced the award to 80 degrees, or 25 percent of the maximum. The Board also suggested that the Disability Prevention Division reassess claimant's eligibility for vocational rehabilitation.
