SB 26-186

Senate Bill 26-186 updates Colorado’s Workers' Compensation Act to allow for electronic filing and mailing of documents instead of just physical mail. This change helps modernize the process for workers and employers who need to file claims or other paperwork with the Division of Workers’ Compensation in the Department of Labor and Employment. The bill has been signed into law, meaning that it is now official and will be implemented as part of Colorado’s updated workers' compensation procedures.
