Abell and his brother had been hired as laborers to help prepare the grounds for the county

Question:

Abell and his brother had been hired as laborers to help prepare the grounds for the county fair. They were to be paid by the hour and were to furnish their own tools. No understanding was reached concerning the length of their employment, but it was understood that it would be “for one or two weeks.” The work to be done consisted of “odd jobs,” such as cleaning up and making minor repairs. Abell died when he was struck by a tractor while working. In light of these facts, were Abell’s survivors entitled to workers’ compensation benefits? (Wood v. Abell, 300 A.2d 665)
