Summary
The bill changes Kentucky’s workers’ compensation statutes so that employers are responsible for injuries regardless of fault and extends that responsibility to contractors who hire subcontractors. It adds rules about when an employee’s drug use blocks benefits, requires proof of coverage before building permits are issued, and mandates employers post clear notices about their workers’ comp coverage.
