CLAIMANT-NURSE’S MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS WERE NOT COMPENSABLE AS THEY WERE NOT CAUSED BY GREATER THAN NORMAL STRESSORS (THIRD DEPT). ​

The Third Department determined claimant-nurse's mental health problems were not compensable because they were not deemed to have been caused by stress greater than that experienced in the normal work environment:

We find that substantial evidence supports the Board's factual determination that claimant's depressive condition was not compensable, as the work-related incidents and conditions that led to her mental injuries did not involve stressors that were “greater than that which other similarly situated workers experienced in the normal work environment” … . Claimant's supervisors described normal oversight and monitoring practices undertaken to assist her in correcting deficiencies in and improving her performance, and claimant failed to identify any unusual stressors or conduct that would constitute harassment or bullying as alleged in her claim for benefits. With regard to her job transfer, the testimony established that it was voluntary and, while it appears that the transition and organization of the new unit were somewhat chaotic and that her accommodations were not immediately communicated to her new supervisors, there was no credible evidence that the transfer was retaliatory or that she was knowingly denied accommodations. Further, claimant was never disciplined, reprimanded or singled out for unfair treatment, and the work evaluations and feedback were undertaken in a good faith. Matter of Lanese v Anthem Health Servs., 2018 NY Slip Op 06845, Third Dept 10-11-18
