Question:
In May 2020, Ed became concerned that COVID-19 posed a potential safety hazard in the company's wood processing facilities. Employees in that facility were required to work closely together in a very small, unventilated space. In response to this perceived COVID-19 threat, Ed asked Ronnie to install ceiling fans in the processing facility. Ninety percent of the employees in the facility contracted COVID-19 and one employee, Victoria, died from it. Ed did not record Victoria's COVID-19-related death or report it to OSHA. Victoria's spouse filed a workers compensation claim, which was denied because Pine Tree determined that her death was not work-related.
1. Briefly discuss the worker's compensation claim filed by Victoria's spouse after her COVID-19 death.
