Holding

The application is dismissed with costs to the respondents and claimant.

Facts

The claimant filed a claim against the respondent for compensation due to an injury sustained at work. The third party/applicant (Trident Insurance Company Limited) sought to have the proceedings stayed and the judgment reviewed due to non-service of the outcome before the Directorate of Occupational Safety & Health (DOSH).

Issues

  1. Service of the outcome before DOSH
  2. Venue of the WIBA claim
  3. Fairness of the proceedings

Reasoning

The court found that the third party/applicant was served with the outcome before DOSH and had the opportunity to respond. The court dismissed the application as the third party/applicant was not willing to participate in the proceedings.

Outcome

Dismissed with costs

Orders

  • Application dismissed
  • Costs awarded to respondents and claimant
