On August 18, 2014, the Maine Workers’ Compensation Board amended the rules governing the Maine workers compensation system.  These amendments include some important substantive changes, including altered deadlines and new mandatory procedures for employers and insurers to follow.

A helpful guide summarizing these rule changes can be found on the Tucker Law Group website, here. The text of the new Rules can be found on the WCB Rules page of the Maine Workers’ Compensation Board website.  For questions about the amended Rules and their potential impact on employers and insurers, contact the attorneys at Tucker Law Group.
