*360Brickley, J.
In this workers’ compensation case, we address one major question: Should the rule of Kleinschrodt v General Motors Corp, 402 Mich 381; 263 NW2d 246 (1978), reh den 402 Mich 965 (1978), governing the proper interpretation of the one-year-back rule, MCL 418.833(1); MSA 17.237(833X1), and, as applied by analogy, the two-year-back rule, MCL 418.381(2); MSA 17.237(381X2), be modified or overruled? In addition, we consider the defendant-appellant’s arguments regarding the Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board finding of a work-related disability.
