Workers' compensation: proceedings: expedited hearings.

Abstract

Existing law establishes a workers' compensation system to compensate an employee for injuries sustained in the course of his or her employment. Under this system, the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board has jurisdiction to adjudicate claims relating to workers' compensation. Existing law creates the Administrative Director of the Division of Workers' Compensation, who has specified powers and duties relating to the workers' compensation trial process. Existing law requires the administrative director to establish a priority conference calendar for cases in which the employee is represented by an attorney and the disputed issues are employment or injury, as specified. This bill would additionally require that cases in which the employee has an illegally uninsured employer and the disputed issues are employment or injury, as specified, be placed on the priority conference calendar established under existing law.
