Senate approves bill to hike Arizona workers' injury benefits

The Arizona Daily Sun

PHOENIX - The Senate on Monday approved a workers' compensation bill to carry out a business-labor compromise to increase Arizona's caps on benefits received by employees who are hurt on the job.

The Senate's 24-2 vote sends the bill (HB2195) to the House, which previously considered a version of the bill without the caps increase.

Under the bill, raising the current cap would benefit workers making more than $28,800 annually.
