Interesting hypothetical...

So in Maryland, I would have raised the "horseplay exception" as a defense. Might have gotten away with that one.

Now in your case, depending on what state the claim is filed in, there may be diffent rules re: co-employee involvement, so whether you follow the Frenchman's lead and pick up a stranger in the hotel bar or play it safe (or not) with one of your cabin crew could make a difference to your claim, not to mention any possible third-party actions.

Also, without researching it, I'm willing to bet that any MHC-related activities would be covered by some federal statute and I don't practice federal workers' comp, which is a whole different animal. That might actually kick in once the door closes, regardless of whether you're airborne, actually. You probably know the FAA regs better than I do on that.

Good luck, Captain.

I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888

With this ruling, the next “logical” conclusion is that Employers could be subject to fines for not having MSDS for semen

A thing called Google Search.... Big Grin Oddly enough, not a lot of representation from Brazil in the form of weather ladies, so you'll have to settle on the representatives from Mexico.

Maybe his job was to screw people so they figured he was acting in the course and scope of his employment.
