MAYOR THERESA CANADA (L) GIVES OATH OF OFFICE
To City Recorder Jo Thornberry, After Being Sworn In Herself
NFIB Seeks Reform Bills
Workers’ compensation in
surance reform will be the t:ir
griority of Georgia's small
usiness owners during the
1992 session of the General
Assembly, according to the
state’s largest small-business
advocacy organization.
‘““We have to pass a
workers’ ¢ompensation reform
bill that ig favorable to
businesses. this year. High
workers’ compensation costs
are threatening the existence of
many businesses in Georgia to
day. We must have cost
containment now,” said Bert
Fridlin, state director of the
National Federation of In
dependent Business (NFIB).
REFORMS
Among the reforms being
promoted bmFIB on behalf
of its more than 10,000 Georgia
members:
* Reduce the amount of
litigation, and lawyer's fees, in
workers’ compensation claims;
* Provide for subrogation,
that allows an em({)loyer to
recover from a third party —
who caused the injury to the
employee —the money paid
out in the in{::uy claim;
* Impose limits on the time
geriod medical and income
enefits will be paid based on
ability to work and severity of
the injury;
» l{epeal mandatory
rehabilitation assessments ex
cept in catastrophic injury
cases; e
* Increase communication
between insurers and
employers concerning set
tlements of claims, premium
and rate changes, and safety
programs;
Improve on-the-job safetg;
procedures followed by bot
empl(;yees and employers;
. ight fraud in the system
through enforcement of in
surance fraud laws ad
ministered by the insurance
commissioner’s office.
Also high on the small
business agenda this year is
health care cost containment
and increased availabilit‘\; and
afford-ability of health in
surance. ‘‘Anything we can do
to control the cost of health
care is critical,”” said Fridlin,
noting that the group will sup
port legislation to give
emploly;ers more options to Eur
chase health insurance for their
employees according to their
needs, including exnanded
‘“‘preferred %E'ovider ' pro
grams. But, Fridlin stressed
that the small-business group
“will oppose any efforts to
mandate specific coverages in
health care plans.”
MORE CUTS
On other issues, 93 percent
of the business owners in
dicated in a recent
NFIB/Georgia survey that any
talk of tax increases is
premature before all possible
cuts are made in the state
budget.

‘““There still are many
recommendations from the
- Williams Commission that car
be enacted into the budget,”
Fridlin noted. ‘“There continues
to be too many situations that
need to be eliminated or con
- tracted out to the private sec
tor where state government
agencies are competing with
;ang)aying businesses.”
- By a three-to-one margin,
:the small-business owners

taxes should not be reduced.
“Once again, budget cuts
sh%uld be the first priority,” he
said.
The group also plans to
stronglfi' oppose efforts to re
quire that employers provide
unpaid farental leave benefits
to employees, while keepinfi
that employee’s job open unti
they return to work.
“Flexibility is the key in the
90's for employers and
employees. We gon t need the
government telling us how to
run our business,”’ Fridlin said.
