| | | For purposes of this paragraph, seasonal and casual workers, | | immediate family members of unincorporated employers and | | immediate family members of bona fide owners of at least 20% | | of the voting stock of an incorporated employer are not | | considered agricultural or aquacultural laborers. | | "Immediate family members" means parents, spouses, brothers, | | sisters and children. |
|
| | | Under current law, employers of employees engaged in | | agriculture or aquaculture are exempt from the provisions of the | | Maine Workers' Compensation Act of 1992 if, among other things, | | the employers maintain medical payment coverage of $1,000. This | | bill increases the required medical payment coverage to $25,000. |
