1Opinion of the Court
KITE, Justice.
[¶ 1] Kirk Bonsell challenges the district court’s reversal of the Office of Administrative Hearings’ (OAH) order awarding him permanent partial disability (PPD) benefits. After reviewing the entire record, we conclude the hearing examiner’s decision Mr. Bonsell had suffered a loss of earning capacity as a result of his work-related injury was supported by substantial evidence and in accordance with law. The district court improperly substituted its judgment when it reversed the OAH order awarding benefits. Consequently, we reverse and remand.
