Insurance and Real Estate Committee & Labor and Public Employees Committee to Hold Information Hearing on Works Compensation and COVID-19

On June 17 at 10 a.m., the Insurance and Real Estate Committee including State Senator Matt Lesser (D-Middletown) and the Labor and Public Employees Committee will be holding a joint informational hearing on workers compensation insurance and COVID-19 that will stream on Connecticut Network.

Four separate panels will be present to examine how workers compensation is functioning during the coronavirus pandemic. Connecticut has taken measures to reduce the need for in person hearings but has not taken the step to grant some or all workers a presumption that they have contracted COVID-19 on the job.
