The Supreme Court dismissed the claim for work injury compensation because the plaintiff's pain during lifting was not a direct consequence of the tendon rupture. The court found that the injury occurred while the plaintiff was already experiencing pain, meaning the lifting act did not cause the damage. Consequently, the causal link required for statutory compensation under the Work Accident Insurance Act was not established.
