In Rosvold v. Dunlop, 2001 BCCA 1 at para. 10, our Court of Appeal held that all relevant factors must be taken into consideration in assessing a future loss of earning capacity, including: 1. whether the plaintiff has been rendered less capable overall from earning income from all types of employment; 2. whether the plaintiff is less marketable or attractive as an employee to potential employers; 3. whether the plaintiff has lost the ability to take advantage of all job opportunities which might otherwise have been open to them, had they not been injured; and 4. whether the plaintiff is less valuable to themselves as a person capable of earning income in a competitive labour market.
