What it does
Existing workers' compensation law requires employers to compensate their employees for injuries sustained during the course of his or her employment. Existing law provides that if an injury causes permanent disability and the injured employee does not return to work for the employer within 60 days of the termination of temporary disability, the injured employee is eligible for supplemental job displacement benefits in the form of a nontransferable voucher for education-related retraining or skill enhancement. Existing law provides that employers who meet certain criteria shall not be liable for the supplemental job displacement benefit.
