California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a hospital workplace safety bill which imposes new requirements on hospitals for workplace violence plans and reporting but vetoed a bill that assumes hospital employees who get a staph infection got it at work — and qualify for workers' compensation coverage, according to an article on the Sacramento Business Journal.
The approved bill requires hospitals to develop comprehensive safety plans to minimize violence in the workplace. Hospitals opposed the bill as unnecessary.
Brown said he vetoed the second bill because it would create a first-of-its kind private employer workers' compensation presumption of coverage for a specific staph infection for certain hospital employees.
