CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Edward Zwettler's petition for reconsideration, upholding the judge's decision that he was not an employee of Kkottongnae Retreat Center (KRC). The judge found Zwettler's testimony regarding an employment agreement with an unauthorized individual and his continued presence on KRC property despite attempts to evict him lacked credibility. Furthermore, even if an agreement existed, it would likely be excluded from workers' compensation coverage due to KRC being a charitable organization providing shelter based on need, not employment.
