Removes labor market attachment requirements for certain disability cases

This bill amends New York's workers' compensation law to remove the requirement for workers with permanent partial disability to prove ongoing "labor market attachment" to receive benefits. It directly affects workers who have suffered work-related injuries causing lasting wage-earning capacity loss, allowing them to receive compensation based solely on their impairment level without needing to demonstrate continued job market engagement. Key provisions specify benefit duration limits (e.g., up to 525 weeks for >95% impairment) and also eliminate the labor market attachment requirement for temporary partial disability claims. The change simplifies the process for eligible claimants while maintaining specific benefit caps based on the severity of disability.
