Final Answer :
False
Explanation :
Workers' compensation typically covers accidents or injuries that occur during the course of employment. Since Joseph's accident happened on his way to lunch, it is not considered to have occurred in the course of his employment, unless specific exceptions apply (e.g., he was running an errand for his employer).
