Report Link Texas Supreme Court Rejects Retaliation Suit (pdf).Ogletree Deakins - August 10, 2005 The state’s highest court recently
dismissed a lawsuit brought by an employee
who alleged that she was terminated
in retaliation for filing a workers’
compensation claim. According
to the Texas Supreme Court, the employee
failed to provide any evidence
that her discharge was unlawful. In so
holding, the court reaffirmed that termination
pursuant to a neutral absence
control policy is not retaliatory. Report Link Texas Reforms Its Workers' Compensation System.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - June 09, 2005 On June 1, 2005, Governor Rick Perry signed House Bill 7 (HB7), which provides for sweeping changes to the workers’ compensation system in the state of Texas. Prompted by an outdated, expensive system that did little to encourage injured employees to return to work, HB7 contains a number of major changes that will affect the way employee injuries are handled in Texas. Effective September 1, 2005, HB7 is designed to reduce costs, improve medical care, and pave the way for injured employees to return to work.
