Report Link Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation Must Engage in Retrospective Rating Plan, Court Holds.Jackson Lewis LLP - December 01, 2008 Ohio’s workers compensation insurance premium rates may decline following a trial court decision to require retrospective, rather than prospective, group ratings. This may reduce costs for all employers and make Ohio’s base rates more competitive with its neighbors. Report Link Ohio Supreme Court Bars Common Law Workers' Compensation Retaliation Claims.Jackson Lewis LLP - January 15, 2008 At-will employees who believe that they were retaliated against while receiving workers' compensation benefits are limited to claims under the state's anti-retaliation statute, the Ohio Supreme Court has held in Bickers v. W. & S. Life Ins. Co., Slip Op. No. 2007-Ohio-6751 (2007). This is good news for employers because at-will employees no longer can rely on the Court's controversial decision in Coolidge v. Riverdale Local Sch. Dist., 100 Ohio St. 3d 141 (2003), which allowed for two separate causes of action: a statutory retaliation claim and a wrongful discharge claim based on public policy. Report Link New Ohio Law Provides Defense to Workers Compensation Claims With Positive Substance Abuse Test.Jackson Lewis LLP - September 14, 2004 Governor Bob Taft of Ohio has approved the new Ohio "rebuttable presumption law" (House Bill 223), for employees seeking workers compensation benefits and who test positive for illegal or non-prescribed drugs or alcohol. Report Link Worker Receiving Disability Benefits Under Ohio Workers' Comp May Not Be Discharged for Absenteeism.Jackson Lewis LLP - January 15, 2004 The Ohio Supreme Court has ruled that an employee who is receiving temporary total disability (TTD) under the Ohio Workers' Compensation Act may not be discharged solely on the basis of absenteeism or inability to work.
