The Supreme Court dismissed the claim that the applicant's asthma was primarily caused by mold exposure at work. The applicant argued that workplace conditions, specifically moisture damage and mold, triggered the condition, while the employer contended the asthma had other origins. The court found insufficient evidence linking the specific workplace mold exposure to the primary cause of the applicant's asthma.
