Description

Petition, for compensation under the employers liability and workmens compensation act. (P. L., c. 178). The plaintiff was a saleswoman in the defendants department store in Manchester. The court found these facts: "Her principal duties consisted in the selling of merchandise; but they also included sweeping in and around the counter, cleaning and polishing the counter, and frequently bringing down small quantities of goods from the stock room on the second floor of the building .... In the rear of the store there is a freight elevator which ... serves ... the defendant. It is used by the defendant to carry goods to and from the stock room on the second floor, and when so used is operated by the defendants stock man... The plaintiff, and other salesgirls, had frequently ridden on this elevator when making trips to the stock room," with the defendants permission. It was found and ruled that "the plaintiff was doing work in proximity to hoisting apparatus, or machinery operated by mechanical power, in a place where five or more persons were engaged in manual or mechanical labor ", and that therefore the plaintiff, injured in doing her work in the store, was entitled to compensation.
