1Opinion of the Court

KENNETH W. SHRUM, Judge.

The Labor and Industrial Relations Commission (“Commission”) affirmed an award of workers’ compensation benefits to Mark DeVille (“DeVille”). Hiland Dairy Company (“Employer”) appeals, urging reversal by asserting the following: (1) De-Ville was not working when the injury happened; (2) the injury was idiopathic, hence DeVille’s employment was not a substantial factor in causing injury; and (3) Commission’s finding that the injury arose out of DeVille’s employment was an insufficient basis to support the award as a matter of law. This court affirms.
