Bill > S06074

This bill removes the labor market attachment requirements for cases of permanent partial disability under the New York Workers' Compensation Law. Specifically, it amends the law to remove the requirement that claimants who are entitled to benefits at the time of classification must demonstrate ongoing attachment to the labor market to receive compensation. The bill also removes the labor market attachment requirement for temporary partial disability cases. This change aims to ensure that injured workers who are classified as permanently or temporarily partially disabled can continue to receive benefits without the additional burden of demonstrating labor market attachment.
