The bill amends the Workers' Compensation Act of June 2, 1915, by adding a new section that mandates the development of a multilingual informational addendum for forms related to the suspension, modification, or termination of compensation benefits. This addendum will be available in English, Spanish, and any other languages deemed significant by the department. It aims to ensure that individuals affected by the act are informed of their rights, including wage loss and medical benefits, and that they have access to interpretation and translation services.

The informational addendum will include essential information such as a statement about the potential impact of inaction on rights under the act and contact details for language assistance services, including a toll-free number and email address. The bill is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
