1. “"Act No. 1 of the Extraordinary Session of 1983 (effective July 1, 1983) effected significant changes in the definition of total permanent disability, making much more restrictive those situations in which the term applies. When the employee is not working, such benefits may be awarded only if he proves by clear and convincing evidence, unaided by any presumption of disability, that he is physically unable to engage in any employment or self-employment, regardless of the nature or character of the employment or self-employment, including, but not limited to, any and all odd-lot employment, sheltered employment, or employment while working in pain, notwithstanding its location of availability. La. R.S. 23:1221(2)(c). Further, no judgment of total permanent disability may be entered prior to an evaluation of rehabilitation possibilities or during a rehabilitation program. La. R.S. 23:1226(D); 1221(2)(e); 1226(G). In the latter instance the worker is entitled to temporary total disability benefits for the duration of the program. La.R.S. 23:1226(F)."”
