Bill overview
This bill expands the definition of ‘first responder’ under Nevada’s industrial insurance system to include civilian employees of law enforcement agencies who primarily investigate crime scenes. It also clarifies that ‘law enforcement agency’ includes any agency with a duty to enforce the law and employs peace officers, and ‘public safety agency’ encompasses fire departments, law enforcement agencies, and emergency medical services. The changes aim to provide broader coverage for stress-related claims to these employees who may experience significant trauma in their work.
