	Significant Decision Jill A. Cobb 66449
		The question which the Board is called upon to decide by this appeal is purely a legal one, to wit: Is a worker's recovery under his employer's underinsured motorist insurance policy a "third person" recovery within the meaning of RCW 51.24, and thereby subject to the Department's reimbursement lien as prescribed by RCW 51.24.060.
		In sum, we hold that a worker's recovery under his employer's underinsured motorist insurance policy is not a "third person" recovery within the purview of RCW 51.24, and is therefore not subject to the Department's reimbursement lien as prescribed by RCW 51.24.060(2).
		The claimant's recovery from her employer's underinsured motorist carrier should be properly considered a third-party recovery subject to the lien and distribution provisions of RCW 51.24.
