B) the class was solely benefiting Medrano, so the employer had no liability.
C) even though the class made Medrano a better employee and benefited the company, Medrano was kill off of the company premises, so it was not a job related injury and the company was not liable.
D) because the class made Medrano a better employee and the company benefited from having a better employee, the "mutual benefit" doctrine applied, and the company was liable for workers' compensation benefits.
