Workers' Compensation Act
Montana · Labor · §§ 39-71-1001 to 39-71-920 · 353 sections
Overview
This act establishes a state's workers' compensation system, defining who qualifies as an employee, how terms such as intoxication apply, which businesses fall outside its reach, and how it interacts with other laws, along with special coverage rules for groups such as emergency response personnel and members of the state's military forces. It places administration of the system in a workers' compensation division housed within the state insurance department, setting the division's duties and prescribing the appointment, qualifications, compensation, removal, and conflict-of-interest restrictions governing the commissioner who leads it, while creating a separate office of injured employee counsel and dividing authority between the insurance and workers' compensation commissioners. It also bars discrimination, fixes the interest or discount rate applied under the system, and requires public interest information, documented complaint handling, and opportunities for public participation.
