HB 992 Workers' compensation; definition of employee.
Introduced by: William C. Mims | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Workers' compensation; definition of employee. Provides that an executive officer who is not paid salary or wages on a regular basis at an agreed upon amount and who rejects workers' compensation coverage pursuant to § 65.2-300 is not counted as an employee for the purposes of determining whether or not employees of a business are required to be covered under the Workers' Compensation Act. Under the Act, coverage is mandatory for employees of businesses with three or more employees. The bill provides that if executive officers, as defined in § 65.2-101, reject such coverage, they are not counted as employees. Thus, under the bill, workers' compensation coverage would not be mandatory for employees of a small business where there are two employees and one executive officer who is not paid salary or wages and who elects not to be covered under the Act.
