NJ Senate Passes WC Coverage Legislation

The NJ Senate passed (40-0) a substituted bill requiring the investigation of cases where employers fail to obtain workers' compensation coverage. The substituted bill adopts the suggestions of Governor Corzine who had proposed some changes in his October 2008 condititonal veto message.

The legislation requires the Insurance Fraud Prosecutor (IFP) to establish a liaison with the NJ Department of Labor and Workplace Development and authorizes the investigation of cases involving failure to obtain Workers' Compensation coverage.
