AN ACT CONCERNING A STUDY OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE WORKERS' COMPENSATION ACT.
This bill establishes a working group to review the state's Workers' Compensation Act and recommend changes to specific sections of the law. The group will be made up of six members appointed by various legislative leaders, including both majority and minority party representatives from the House and Senate. The working group must submit its findings and recommendations to the relevant committees by January 1, 2027, and will end once it completes its report or reaches that deadline, whichever comes later. This measure does not change current workers' compensation laws but creates a process to examine them for potential improvements.
