Sun, 12 May 2013 13:00:01 +0000 http://www.lajollalight.com/?p=94840#comment-262926 It seems that everytime a workers comp law passes, it gives the insurance companies more power over the injured worker. All this is done for political interest and dont show any concern for the employees. We dont go to work and decide to get hurt, alot of times injuries occurr because companies want to cut corners, or want an employee to do a 2 or 3 person job. I guess from now on we should report any threat of injury to cal osha so if theres an injury cal osha will have a record of any safety violation that has neen reported and not taken care of.

The new law eliminates permanent disability benefits for the psych portion of physical-psych injuries. Treatment and settlement of future treatment for such injuries is still possible. Stop disseminating bad information. Read the law. The new law eliminates permanent disability benefits for the psych portion of physical-psych injuries.
