Title: Policy 61.06 – Workers' Compensation Insurance Coverage for Volunteers.
Date Issued: August 15, 2017.
Description: The August 1, 2016, policy was amended to make the interim policy permanent. One change was made to policy point #7 to remove "K-12 and beyond" from the unpaid student section as it was not necessary to clarify what an institution of higher learning is. This change was made because of a stakeholder comment.
