Workers Comp death benefits for diesel-related illness
A significant bill just passed the house and senate in Albany , it would allow a family to file for death benefits through workers comp for a diesel related illness.
Governor Hochul signed Senate Bill S661/Assembly Bill A6424 to help protect fellow employees ( work train operators, bus operators & mechanics and other MTA workers) into law on November 2, 2021. Thanks to all who made a call or sent a letter!
