Senate Amendment 5411 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 1 37 WILLIAM A.
