For legislation relative to impairment of health caused by infectious disease. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 32 of the General Laws to establish a presumption that any condition of impairment of health caused by an infectious disease resulting in total or partial disability or death to an employee of a correctional facility is presumed to have been suffered in the line of duty, as long as the employee successfully passed a physical examination on entry into such service or subsequently, and the examination did not reveal any evidence of the condition. This presumption can be rebutted by competent evidence to the contrary.
