Description
Workers' compensation; off-premises injuries incurred by public safety employees. Eliminates, with respect to off-premises injuries incurred by public safety employees, the condition for eligibility for workers' compensation benefits that the nature of an employee's employment exposed the employee to a particular risk of injury that is usually not faced by a member of the public. The measure would eliminate an employer's defense that such an injury was an act of God not covered by the Workers' Compensation Act because the risk of injury was no greater for the employee than for members of the public.
