In Zuback v. Workers' Compensation Appeal Board (Paradise Valley Enterprise Lumber Co.), 892 A.2d 41 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2006), the employer installed stair glides in the claimant's home to allow the claimant to move between floors. More than 25 years after the employer initially installed the glides, the claimant filed a penalty petition against the employer alleging that the employer had failed to pay to have the glides repaired. The WCJ denied the claimant's petition, and the Board affirmed that decision, reasoning that the employer was only required to make a one-time expenditure to modify the claimant's home, which it had done. The Court concluded that: Claimant did not seek any additional modifications to his house, but only the replacement of the two stair glides. The stair glide, which operates much like a wheelchair, is clearly an "orthopedic appliance." Further, this record reflects that SWIF has provided Claimant with numerous wheelchairs and replacement beds as a result of "wear and tear." Stair glides should receive the same treatment. "In reviewing workmen's compensation matters, we are also guided by the basic premise that our Workmen's Compensation Act is remedial in nature and is intended to benefit workers, and therefore, the Act must be liberally construed in order to effectuate its humanitarian objectives." Zuback, 892 A.2d at 46-47.
