Description
Appellant, Charles London, seeks an interpretation of certain provisions of our Workmens Compensation Act governing compensation of losses resulting from temporary partial disability. The facts of the case are not disputed, a stipulation having been set forth by the parties on appeal. During the summer of 1966, Charles London suffered an industrial accident while in the course of his employment with Fairbanks Municipal Utilities. As a result of the accident, London was totally disabled for some time. While working for Fairbanks Municipal Utilities, London received an average monthly wage of $1,200.00; since his accident he has been fully compensated under the Alaska Workmens Compensation Act for his period of total disability. Following his accident London left Fairbanks, traveling to Washington. On January 11, 1967, London began working in Redmond, Washington, at an average monthly wage of $700. On November 13, 1967, London terminated his employment in Washington and returned to Alaska, where he filed an application for adjustment of claim before the Alaska Workmens Compensation Board. London asserted that it had been necessary for him to take the job in Washington at an average salary less than that which he had received in Fairbanks because he was required to be near Seattle for treatment of conditions resulting from his Fairbanks accident.
