1Opinion of the CourtCynar, J.
Plaintiff appeals from a Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board (WCAB) decision which found she had suffered no work-related disability.
Plaintiff petitioned the Bureau of Workers’ Disability Compensation for a hearing on April 22, 1975, alleging that she had been disabled since October 11, 1974. Following a series of four hearings and two depositions, the hearing referee issued his decision, finding that plaintiff was able to do "favored work” offered by defendant. Defen dant, therefore, had met its obligation under the act and the referee terminated plaintiffs benefits as of February 24, 1978.
