K. The Social Function Exception.

Most courts which have addressed the issue hold that when an injury occurs while an employee is traveling to or from a social function which occurs somewhere other than the workplace, compensability depends on the extent to which the function is employment-related. 1 A. Larson, Workmen's Compensation sec 22.21, at 5-81 (1978) and ALR 3d 571 (1973). Cited in Farmers Elevator Co., Kinglsey v. Manning, 286 N. W.2d 174,178 (Iowa 1979).
