While supervising her students on the playground one day, Adrisa was hit squarely in the nose by a basketball. Unfortunately, her nose was broken and required an expensive surgery to correct the injury. Which of the following statements about Adrisa's situation involving workers' compensation is true?
If Adrisa is an at will employee, there is no employment relationship, which means that Adrisa would not be able to submit a workers compensation claim and, instead, would have to pay for the surgery on her own.
If Adrisa was watching the students at the playground after hours as a favor for one of the student's parents ie after the school day had ended she might not be able to file a workers' compensation claim.
If the students intentionally threw the ball at Adrisa, Adrisa could potentially sue BVSD rather than being required to submit a workers compensation claim.
If Adrisa is very knowledgeable about the workers compensation statute in her home state of Mississippi, that will not help her here because the basic statutory requirements for receiving benefits under workers' compensation statutes differ significantly from state to state.
