Answer:

B. Sue is entitled to Workers' Compensation even though her employer was not negligent.

Explanation:

Sue is performing her normal duties that is required by her being a secretary when she was injured. So the employer cannot be said to be negligent in allowing her carry paper for her unit.

This is given to employees even when the employer is not negligent.
