Bill Summary
Concerns workers' compensation insurance requirements for certain corporations and partnerships.
AI Summary
This bill amends the definition of "employer" and "employee" in the New Jersey workers' compensation law to include self-employed persons, partners of limited liability partnerships, members of limited liability companies, partners of partnerships, and shareholders of S corporations who actively perform services on behalf of their business. It also requires workers' compensation insurance policies to provide coverage for these individuals if the business, partnership, or corporation elects to obtain such coverage. The bill also clarifies that insurers and insurance producers are not liable for damages due to a failure to elect coverage for these individuals, unless they act in a willful, wanton, or grossly negligent manner.
