1Opinion of the CourtAgid, J.

This appeal arises out of a claim for workers' compensation benefits by three workers who contend they became disabled as a result of long-term exposure to toxic substances at the Intalco Aluminum plant. Intalco Aluminum Corporation (Intalco), a self-insured employer, appeals the judgment in favor of the claimants, primarily contending that the medical evidence is insufficient to support the jury's finding that the claimants' injuries were proximately caused by exposures in the Intalco plant. We affirm.
