Employment: Job Duties

MONTANA SUPREME COURT DECISIONS

Hopkins v. Uninsured Employers' Fund, 2011 MT 49 Although there was conflicting evidence as to whether the claimant was performing a task which he had been assigned to do on the specific day of his injury, he was performing one of his regular employment duties at the time of his injury.  No personal activity “severed” the activity from the continuity of his employment-related duties and he was therefore within the course and scope of his employment.
