Introduced by: R. Lee Ware, Jr. | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Workers' compensation; penalty for failure to pay.  Updates the provision that excuses the Commonwealth from assessment of a penalty for failing to pay workers' compensation benefits when the Commonwealth has issued a regular payroll payment to the employee in lieu of compensation covering the period of disability. The measure allows the payment to be made in any form, and not only by check. The measure also clarifies that a regular payroll payment issued by the Commonwealth includes payments issued net of deductions for elected and mandatory benefits and other standard deductions.
