Bill overview
This bill amends California’s workers’ compensation laws to extend a specific presumption to peace officers employed by the State Department of State Hospitals. Currently, correctional officers have a presumption that heart trouble developed due to their job. This bill expands that presumption to include peace officers in a similar role, ensuring they receive workers’ compensation benefits if they develop heart problems related to their employment. The bill also includes related technical and conforming changes to the law.
