Summary
The bill makes any employer liable for workers’ compensation benefits regardless of fault and extends that liability to contractors and their insurers for subcontractor employees unless the subcontractor has secured coverage. It also adds exceptions for self‑inflicted harm, drug use, and intentional employer misconduct, and requires proof of coverage for building permits and posted notices of insurance information.
