Labor-Management Advisory Council on Workers' Compensation
The purpose of the Labor-Management Advisory Council on Workers’ Compensation is to provide a structure for an organized discussion of workers’ compensation public policy, using data and reports collected in Phase I of the Workers’ Compensation Study Project or additional data and/or reports requested by the Advisory Council. The primary outcome of the Advisory Council will be recommendations to the Commissioner of the Department of Labor and Industry for proposed legislation for the 2009 Montana Legislature. The Council will also make recommendations to the Commissioner on proposed legislation in the 2007 legislative session and on rule-making activities concerning workers’ compensation during the term of the Advisory Council.
Phase I of the Workers’ Compensation Study Project identified four key areas for exploration of policy change by the Advisory Council. These are safety issues, medical issues, return-to-work issues and settlement issues. The Advisory Council will focus its activities on these areas.
