COVID19 Presumption Laws, Occupational Medicine Practice, and Employers - What you need to know
In May 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom enacted an executive order that created a COVID-19 workers' compensation presumption for any employee who worked outside the home during the statewide shelter-in-place order.
