The domestic worker claims the injuries were exacerbated by the demanding nature of her duties and the couple's insistence that she return to work soon after the accident.
"This was because of the tedious nature of the work she did and the potential of aggravating the injuries. The injuries she sustained from the said accident were of such a nature that exacting physical labor will aggravate them," the legal documents state.
