Description
Unfortunately, in the interim between October 15, 1974 and February 1, 1975, three of Hawaii Roofing's employees sustained work injuries and made claims for benefits.*fn3 HIG voluntarily assumed liability for compensation payments to the three claimants on the belief that it was legally responsible therefor -- it had not been informed yet that the department's records indicated Travelers was still the employer's carrier. But in proceedings on the benefit claims before the Disability Compensation Division of the department, in which Travelers and HIG participated, it was determined that Travelers was the responsible carrier. The claimants were awarded benefits by separate decisions and orders issued in December of 1976, and Travelers was ordered to reimburse HIG for the payments previously made.*fn4 The reimbursement orders were premised on specific findings that: (1) the records of the department reflected Travelers was the employer's insurance carrier during the pertinent period, (2) Travelers had not served the requisite notice of cancellation upon the Director, and (3) HIG had been informed its policy was ineffectual by reason of Travelers' coverage of the employer.
