First Responders can file for virus-tied workers’ comp
“The first executive order Hutchinson announced allows first responders and frontline health care workers to receive workers’ compensation if they contract covid-19 while on the job.
The second order grants medical emergency responders immunity from legal liability for actions taken during the covid-19 emergency. Hutchinson said the order is intended to allow those health care workers to do what they believe is necessary during emergency situations without fear of being sued.“
