What's New in Workers' Compensation?

Please join us for a webinar regarding the various changes to Ohio’s workers’ compensation laws that have occurred after the passage of House Bill 27 in 2017 and House Bill 81 in 2020. Topics for discussion will include:

  • New Statute of Limitation periods;
  • VSSR Applications;
  • Changes to the Industrial Commission’s continuing jurisdiction;
  • The doctrine of Voluntary Abandonment;
  • Changes to consider when settlement of the claim is ripe; and
  • Other changes effecting permanent partial disability applications, calculations of FWW, dependent’s benefits, funeral expenses, drug testing and 90-day exams performed by the BWC.

We will also discuss COVID-19 workers’ compensation claims and discuss recently proposed legislation that would address workers’ compensation coverage for COVID-19 related claims and what this proposed legislation means for Ohio employers.
