WIGGINTON, Judge.

The employer/carrier appeal an order of the Judge of Compensation Claims awarding claimant benefits based upon a finding that claimant’s liver disease and subsequent liver transplant, and all other resulting problems, are causally related to his employment in a print shop. We affirm upon the premise that the record supports recovery under an exposure theory.[1] The finding in the order that claimant’s condition additionally constitutes an occupational disease, which is unsupported by the record, is stricken and under the circumstances constitutes harmless error.

AFFIRMED.
