Description

USX Corporation (Employer) appeals from an order of the Workers' Compensation Appeal Board which affirmed the decision of a Workers' Compensation Judge (WCJ) ordering Employer to pay workers' compensation benefits to JoAnn Labash, the widow of Joseph Labash (Claimant). Employer contends that the WCJ erred by rejecting the audiogram presented by Employer, by not rejecting the audiogram presented by Claimant, by shifting the burden of proof to Employer to establish that Claimant's hearing loss was not due to his employment with Employer, by accepting certain testimony on Claimant's exposure to noise while working for Employer and by refusing to dismiss the claim petition on grounds that Employer was prejudiced by its inability to examine Claimant.
