      . The constitutionality of Section 303 of the Workers’ Compensation Act was neither raised nor considered in the trial court and is not properly before this Court on appeal. It may be observed, however, that the constitutionality of this section was upheld by the Supreme Court in Tsarnas v. Jones & Laughlin Steel, 488 Pa. 513, 412 A.2d 1094 (1980). See also: Eisel v. U.S. Slicing Machine Co., 488 Pa. 192, 412 A.2d 138 (1980).
