Maryland has issued a revised workers’ compensation notice that includes a warning about withholding or giving false information about an employee’s work-related activity or return to work.The mandatory workplace notice now states that withholding or giving false information about a workers’ compensation claim could prevent an employee from receiving benefits and may lead to fines, imprisonment or both.

The revised notice also states that an employer’s workers’ compensation insurance company “may” pay an employee’s medical bills and other expenses. The previous notice stated that workers’ compensation pays for an employee’s medical bills and expenses.

In addition, the revised notice states that two-thirds of an employee’s salary may be replaced, while the previous notice stated that compensation would be at a rate “up to” two-thirds of that salary.

The notice also includes a new Spanish version and a website for anyone seeking information about workers’ compensation in Maryland. There is also a new requirement that the notice be printed on gold or yellow paper.

The revised workers’ compensation notice is included in a Maryland labor law poster set offered by Poster Compliance Center. The posters meet all of the state’s posting requirements for general employers.
