1Opinion of the Court

WENTWORTH, Senior Judge.

The Employer/Servicing Agent seek review of the judge of compensation claims’ order awarding Claimant benefits for an accident that occurred on January 7, 1993. The E/SA defended on the basis of section 440.092(3), Florida Statutes (1991), asserting that the accident occurred dining a deviation from Claimant’s employment, and was therefore not compensable. The judge found the claim to be compensable by applying the personal comfort doctrine, and ruled that the doctrine had not been abrogated by section 440.092(3). We affirm.
