Hawaii SB872 extends workers' compensation coverage to high school graduates participating in work-based learning programs.
The bill amends Hawaii Revised Statutes to ensure that newly graduated high school students participating in work-based learning programs sponsored by the Department of Education or the University of Hawaii are eligible for workers' compensation coverage. This coverage applies to both paid and unpaid internships and lasts until July 31 of the year following their graduation. The coverage is exclusive, meaning it is the sole remedy for the student against the State and participating employer.
