Complete·5/1/25

Montana HB367 revises workers' compensation laws regarding travel, reimbursement, and occupational diseases.

Montana HB367 amends workers' compensation laws to clarify coverage for employees traveling for work. It specifies that whether an employer provides transportation or reimburses travel costs does not determine coverage. It also outlines conditions for employee eligibility for benefits, including the role of objective medical findings and the impact of drug use. The bill further details insurer liability for occupational diseases, emphasizing the need for objective medical findings and the employer's role in exposure to hazards. The changes apply to claims occurring on or after October 1, 2025.
