Question:

A woman worked out of her home full time in accordance with a long-standing telecommuting arrangement with her employer. On the day in question, she had been working and stopped to make some lunch. While preparing lunch, her doorbell rang and she answered the door. The person at the door was a neighbor with whom she was casually acquainted. The two chatted briefly. The neighbor left, but returned very shortly thereafter, claiming that he had left his keys behind on the kitchen counter. Without explanation or other intervening events, the neighbor once back inside the house proceeded to brutally assault the woman, leaving her with numerous severe injuries. The woman filed a claim for workers’ compensation that was contested by her employer’s workers’ compensation insurance carrier. Is the woman eligible for workers’ compensation for her injuries? Why or why not?
