New Law (AB 2883)Tightens Workers' Comp Exclusion for Officers, Board Members
This is a repeat of a previous article, but may provide some additional critical details.
A new law has made changes to the officer exclusion for workers' compensation in California but it could cause problems for policies that do not incept on Jan. 1.
Starting in 2017, an officer can be only excluded from workers' comp coverage if he or she owns 15% or more of the company's stock. That's changed from the current rules that set no ownership levels for officers and directors that want to claim a workers' comp exclusion, which has created confusion as well as an opportunity for fraud.
