Workplace injury assistance-information and guidance.
HB 125 requires Wyoming's Department of Workforce Services to provide clear, accessible information and guidance to employers and employees about workplace injuries, covering topics like rights, workers' compensation claim processes, and available support services such as financial assistance and rehabilitation programs. The department must widely share this information and submit an annual report to a state committee by September 30, detailing how many people used the guidance and distinguishing between workers' compensation-specific resources and general workplace injury information. Implementing rules for these requirements must be finalized by July 1, 2022. This law directly affects all employers and employees in Wyoming who navigate workplace injury claims or support systems.
