Question:

Whigham was employed as the Director of Creative Solutions at a marketing, advertising, and public relations company that sought to cultivate an enjoyable work atmosphere. Whigham proposed the idea of a company kickball game to his superior, who instructed him to proceed. Whigham then made the arrangements for a facility rental, the T-shirts, drinks, and snacks with the company funds he was authorized to use. He promoted the event, which took place on a Friday at 3:00 pm, using the company intranet. Roughly half of the company’s employees were in attendance. Whigham was seriously injured in the game, and he filed a claim for workers’ compensation. The Workers’ Compensation Commissioner denied the claim, and Whigham appealed. Decide. Explain. See Whigham v. Jackson Dawson Communications, 410 S.C. 131 (2014).
