Description
ALLEN, J. The claimant appeals a workers' compensation order applying section 440.02(24), Florida Statutes (Supp. 1990), which provides
that the term "wages," as generally used in the Workers' Compensation Law, "includes only the wages earned on the job where
the employee is injured and does not include wages from outside or concurrent employment except in the case of a volunteer
firefighter . . . ." The claimant, who is not a volunteer firefighter, asserts that this statutory classification violates
the guarantee of equal protection as contained in the Florida and United States Constitution. We conclude that the claimant
has failed to establish the asserted constitutional infirmity, and we therefore uphold the application of the statute as against
this challenge.
