[Dr Joe Fanucchi]

**COVID PRESUMPTION LAWS**

**If you handle employee health in California,
you do NOT want to miss this webinar!**

/**/Thursday, November 19, 2020
/**//**/12:00 noon – 1:00 pm PST
/**/

*Join the discussion with our expert panel about this complex, evolving 
topic where we explore the role and responsibilities of the clinician, 
employer, and carrier and provide a framework for assessing and 
implementing new laws that **remain in effect through January 1, 2023.*

California signed two COVID-19 presumption bills into law (State Bill 
1159, Assembly Bill 685). SB 1159 expands access to workers’ 
compensation and makes it easier for first responders, health care 
workers, and people who test positive due to an outbreak at work to get 
the support they need, including necessary medical care and wage 
replacement benefits.

AB 685 ensures timely notification to employees and public health 
officials of COVID-19 cases at workplaces. This notification will help 
workers take necessary precautions such as seeking testing, getting 
medical help, or complying with quarantine directives.

We are sure you have questions! Feel free to submit them ahead of time 
to woema at woema.org and we will address them (time permitting) during the 
webinar.
