Senate Amendment 5411

Amendment Text


PAG LIN
  1  1    Amend Senate File 2312 as follows:
  1  2    #1.  Page 6, line 7, by inserting after the word
  1  3 <employment.> the following:  <The general assembly
  1  4 intends that changes in the identity of the employee's
  1  5 employer that do not require the employee to reenter
  1  6 the competitive labor market will be treated as if the
  1  7 employee remained employed by the same employer.>
  1  8    #2.  Page 6, by inserting after line 7, the
  1  9 following:
  1 10    <d.  It is the intent of the general assembly that
  1 11 employees receive full compensation for all
  1 12 disabilities that arise out of and in the course of
  1 13 employment.  If an employee sustains successive
  1 14 unscheduled injuries or successive injuries to the
  1 15 same scheduled member while working for the same
  1 16 employer, the employer shall be allowed a limited
  1 17 credit to the extent of compensation that the employer
  1 18 paid under the same paragraph of section 85.34,
  1 19 subsection 2, for the previous injury.  This credit
  1 20 applies only to successive injuries that arise out of
  1 21 and in the course of employment with the same employer
  1 22 and the credit is allowed only if that employer has
  1 23 previously paid compensation to the employee.  This
  1 24 credit does not apply to successive injuries with
  1 25 different employers because the marketplace has
  1 26 already made adjustments for the employee's prior
  1 27 disability at the time that the employee is hired.
  1 28    e.  This subsection does not alter second injury
  1 29 fund benefits under section 85.64, benefits paid for
  1 30 permanent total disability under section 85.34,
  1 31 subsection 3, the compensable character of aggravation
  1 32 injuries, or the distinction between scheduled and
  1 33 unscheduled disabilities.>
  1 34
  1 35
  1 36
