Nunez ready to fight over workers' comp rating schedule
This article in the Sacramento Bee (archived) quotes Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez as follows: "We need to put an end to what the new law on workers' comp is doing to injured workers, or else we are not going to move forward on a budget." The new permanent disability schedule which has been put forward by Administrative Director, Andrea Hoch, cuts permanent disability awards by 50-70% according to estimates. Let's watch and see if Mr. Nunez keeps his promises come budget time. > posted by Charles Wear > 4/20/05; 7:12:51 AM |
