... found that Dillon had the right to pursue common-law grounds for wrongful termination, stating that discrimination against injured employees is a protected public policy matter that is not precluded by the exclusive-remedy provisions of the Labor Code. The Court noted that section 132a [the anti-discrimination statute regarding Workers Compensation claims] is in division 1 of the Labor Code, not division 4. Thus, the plain language of the exclusive remedy provisions of the Workers Compensation law apparently limits those provisions to division 4 remedies. Remedies that the legislature placed in other divisions of the Labor Code are simply not subject to the Workers Compensation exclusive remedy provisions' To further support its conclusion, the Court noted that the FEHA is the supreme law regarding discrimination in the workplace unless there's a law that provides greater protection and benefits. Labor Code section 132a ... the Supreme Court held that the Workers Compensation statutory scheme for dealing with discrimination was not an exclusive bar to an employee's right to pursue a claim under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) . Dillon, the employee, sustained an injury on the job as a secretary for the city of Moorpark. The doctor released her and she returned to work, but she was terminated because the City Manager decided that her disabilities precluded her from performing the essential functions of her job. After a long discussion of the history of the law and the protection against discrimination that has been followed by the courts, the Supreme Court found that Dillon had the right to pursue a civil action for discrimination under the FEHA. It also found that Dillon had the right to pursue common-law grounds for wrongful termination, ...

... The growth of the marketplace for captives and alternative risk financing further accentuates this dynamic because the good' risks remove themselves from the insurance pool. This increases the costs of insurance to those remaining — the good' risks' premiums balance the cost of underwriting the poor' risks. In the long term, carriers make a profit as long as they raise premiums to reflect incurred losses. What's the remedy for the client, and the opportunity for the broker? Create a check and balance with the carrier's claims department by auditing the claims handling of your client's cases. After all, the litigation is your client's — not the carrier's — and the long-term consequences will affect your clients. Let's look at what we should incorporate into these checks and balances: The initial discussions with the client involve identification ... by CompleteMarkets Editor , John Beringer This content has not been rated yet. No longer can you as the agent simply sit back and await the outcome of a client's claim, entrusting everything to the carrier. Your client relies on you to maintain a system for auditing the entire process. Without one, you risk losing business. In this document, John Beringer gives you the details of how to manage a claim, from beginning to end, with your client's best interests in mind. Most industry publications I read focus on two issues: the need to manage risk by purchasing insurance to limit exposures, and the increased cost of insurance due to the hardening market. Although these two issues are important, it's also true that both insurance and the decision to purchase it are really methodologies for preserving ...

In most situations, some settlement is possible. Whether what's available is also acceptable may be a tougher issue, but at least the option is there, and experience shows that mediation usually produces acceptable settlements. Moreover, in litigation the outcomes are limited by the remedies available under the law, but in mediation the options are more flexible. In one case where the defendant's failure to pay for a product was justified by claims that the product didn't work, the defendant shared a solution to the problem for which the plaintiff was only too happy to pay. In a case with environmental issues, an impasse over the amount that would change hands was resolved by ... name: Email: Are you sure you want to deactivate your CompleteMarkets Company Profile Deactivate Cancel Loading..
