Which of the following injuries occurring on the job is typically NOT deemed compensable?

In the context of workers' compensation, injuries that are deemed compensable are typically those directly related to job duties and caused by work-related incidents. The scenario of a cerebral hemorrhage caused by years of high blood pressure stands out because it is generally considered a pre-existing condition rather than an acute injury or incident occurring directly as a result of the work environment or job activities.

Compensable injuries usually stem from specific incidents or repetitive actions directly tied to work, such as a fall, a fracture from an accident, or injuries arising from repetitive motion tasks. These types of injuries are typically clear indicators of the job's physical demands and risks. In contrast, the cerebral hemorrhage, linked to long-term health issues rather than a specific event at work, does not meet the criteria for compensability under most workers' compensation laws. Thus, option B reflects an injury that is more attributable to personal health factors rather than work-related factors.
