Default Australian Workers Compensation Sex Claim

Thought this was funny. Feel free to discuss.

Is a man or woman injured while having sex in their hotel room on a work trip entitled to a workers' compensation payout?

The case involved a woman who was sent on a work assignment to a country town by her employer, the Human Relations Section of the Commonwealth Government agency. In the course of her work stay, she had a sexual encounter with a male friend who lived in the country town.

According to the male friend's statement, they had raucous sex together and were rolling around when a light in a glass fitting came away from the wall. He was unclear if they bumped the light or it happened to fall off.

The woman subsequently brought a workers' compensation claim for the facial and psychological injuries that she suffered. An administrative court denied the claim holding that the injured party had to demonstrate that she was injured while taking part in an activity that was ''induced or encouraged'' by her employer.
