Delaware 148th General Assembly

An Act To Amend Title 19 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Workers' Compensation As An Exclusive Remedy.
HB-308


About HB-308

This bill is in response to the recent Delaware Superior Court decision of Simpson v. State of Delaware and Government Employees Insurance Company, 2016 WL 425010 (Del. Super. Ct. Jan. 28, 2016). In the Simpson decision, the Court noted the need for clarification, as the exclusivity provision in 19 Del. C. 2304 could operate to unfairly deprive an employee of much-needed benefits.
