PER CURIAM: Judy Barnes appeals the decision of the Appellate Panel of the Workers' Compensation Commission denying her benefits for falling at work.� We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities: Crosby v. Wal-Mart Store, Inc., 330 S.C. 489, 496, 499 S.E.2d 253, 257 (Ct. App. 1998) ("The burden is on the claimant to prove such facts as will render the injury compensable, and such an award must not be based on surmise, conjecture or speculation."); Pierre v. Seaside Farms, Inc., 386 S.C. 534, 541, 689 S.E.2d 615, 618 (2010) (stating for an injury to be compensable, it must arise out of and in the course of employment); id. (providing "'[a]rising out of' refers to the origin and cause of the accident" and "an accident arises out of the employment when the accident happens because of the employment"); Crosby, 330 S.C. at 496, 499 S.E.2d at 257 (affirming the denial of benefits when substantial evidence supported the Commission's finding claimant "failed to show a causal connection between her fall and her employment").

AFFIRMED.
