13 meaning of item (i)) or to whom customer
14 receivables originated by a member of the
15 affiliated group have been transferred, to the
16 extent the average outstanding balance of
17 loans from that corporation to members of its
18 affiliated group during the taxable year do

26 the loans made by a corporation to members of

SB3865 Enrolled- 22 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 its affiliated group exceed the limitation
2 amount, the interest income of that
3 corporation from qualifying loans shall be
4 equal to its interest income from loans to
5 members of its affiliated groups times a
6 fraction equal to the limitation amount
7 divided by the average outstanding balances of
8 the loans made by that corporation to members
9 of its affiliated group;
10 (c) the total of all shareholder's equity
11 (including, without limitation, paid-in
12 capital on common and preferred stock and
13 retained earnings) of the corporation plus the
14 total of all of its loans, advances, and other
15 obligations payable or owed to members of its
16 affiliated group may not exceed 20% of the
17 total assets of the corporation at any time
18 during the tax year; and
19 (d) more than 50% of all interest-bearing
20 obligations of the affiliated group payable to
21 persons outside the group determined in
22 accordance with generally accepted accounting
23 principles must be obligations of the
24 corporation.
25 This amendatory Act of the 91st General Assembly
26 is declaratory of existing law.

SB3865 Enrolled- 23 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 (D) Subparagraphs (B) and (C) of this paragraph
2 are declaratory of existing law and apply
3 retroactively, for all tax years beginning on or
4 before December 31, 1996, to all original returns, to
5 all amended returns filed no later than 30 days after
6 the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1996, and
7 to all notices issued on or before the effective date
8 of this amendatory Act of 1996 under subsection (a) of
9 Section 903, subsection (a) of Section 904, subsection
10 (e) of Section 909, or Section 912. A taxpayer that is
11 a "financial organization" that engages in any
12 transaction with an affiliate shall be a "financial
13 organization" for all purposes of this Act.
14 (E) For all tax years beginning on or before
15 December 31, 1996, a taxpayer that falls within the
16 definition of a "financial organization" under
17 subparagraphs (B) or (C) of this paragraph, but who
18 does not fall within the definition of a "financial
19 organization" under the Proposed Regulations issued by
20 the Department of Revenue on July 19, 1996, may
21 irrevocably elect to apply the Proposed Regulations
22 for all of those years as though the Proposed
23 Regulations had been lawfully promulgated, adopted,
24 and in effect for all of those years. For purposes of
25 applying subparagraphs (B) or (C) of this paragraph to
26 all of those years, the election allowed by this

SB3865 Enrolled- 24 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 subparagraph applies only to the taxpayer making the
2 election and to those members of the taxpayer's
3 unitary business group who are ordinarily required to
4 apportion business income under the same subsection of
5 Section 304 of this Act as the taxpayer making the
6 election. No election allowed by this subparagraph
7 shall be made under a claim filed under subsection (d)
8 of Section 909 more than 30 days after the effective
9 date of this amendatory Act of 1996.
10 (F) Finance Leases. For purposes of this
11 subsection, a finance lease shall be treated as a loan
12 or other extension of credit, rather than as a lease,
13 regardless of how the transaction is characterized for
14 any other purpose, including the purposes of any
15 regulatory agency to which the lessor is subject. A
16 finance lease is any transaction in the form of a lease

1 will not include those members whose business activity
2 outside the United States is 80% or more of any such
3 member's total business activity; for purposes of this
4 paragraph and clause (a)(3)(B)(ii) of Section 304,
5 business activity within the United States shall be
6 measured by means of the factors ordinarily applicable
7 under subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), or (h) of
8 Section 304 except that, in the case of members
9 ordinarily required to apportion business income by
10 means of the 3 factor formula of property, payroll and
11 sales specified in subsection (a) of Section 304,
12 including the formula as weighted in subsection (h) of
13 Section 304, such members shall not use the sales
14 factor in the computation and the results of the
15 property and payroll factor computations of subsection
16 (a) of Section 304 shall be divided by 2 (by one if
17 either the property or payroll factor has a
18 denominator of zero). The computation required by the
19 preceding sentence shall, in each case, involve the
20 division of the member's property, payroll, or revenue
21 miles in the United States, insurance premiums on
22 property or risk in the United States, or financial
23 organization business income from sources within the
24 United States, as the case may be, by the respective
25 worldwide figures for such items. Common ownership in
26 the case of corporations is the direct or indirect

SB3865 Enrolled- 34 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 control or ownership of more than 50% of the
2 outstanding voting stock of the persons carrying on
3 unitary business activity. Unitary business activity
4 can ordinarily be illustrated where the activities of
5 the members are: (1) in the same general line (such as
6 manufacturing, wholesaling, retailing of tangible
7 personal property, insurance, transportation or
8 finance); or (2) are steps in a vertically structured
9 enterprise or process (such as the steps involved in
10 the production of natural resources, which might
11 include exploration, mining, refining, and marketing);
12 and, in either instance, the members are functionally
13 integrated through the exercise of strong centralized
14 management (where, for example, authority over such
15 matters as purchasing, financing, tax compliance,
16 product line, personnel, marketing and capital
17 investment is not left to each member).
18 (B) In no event, for taxable years ending prior to
19 December 31, 2017, shall any unitary business group
20 include members which are ordinarily required to
21 apportion business income under different subsections
22 of Section 304 except that for tax years ending on or
23 after December 31, 1987 this prohibition shall not
24 apply to a holding company that would otherwise be a
25 member of a unitary business group with taxpayers that
26 apportion business income under any of subsections

SB3865 Enrolled- 35 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 (b), (c), (c-1), or (d) of Section 304. If a unitary
2 business group would, but for the preceding sentence,
3 include members that are ordinarily required to
4 apportion business income under different subsections
5 of Section 304, then for each subsection of Section
6 304 for which there are two or more members, there
7 shall be a separate unitary business group composed of
8 such members. For purposes of the preceding two
9 sentences, a member is "ordinarily required to
10 apportion business income" under a particular
11 subsection of Section 304 if it would be required to
12 use the apportionment method prescribed by such
13 subsection except for the fact that it derives
14 business income solely from Illinois. As used in this
15 paragraph, for taxable years ending before December
16 31, 2017, the phrase "United States" means only the 50
17 states and the District of Columbia, but does not
18 include any territory or possession of the United
19 States or any area over which the United States has
20 asserted jurisdiction or claimed exclusive rights with
21 respect to the exploration for or exploitation of
22 natural resources. For taxable years ending on or
23 after December 31, 2017, the phrase "United States",
24 as used in this paragraph, means only the 50 states,
25 the District of Columbia, and any area over which the
26 United States has asserted jurisdiction or claimed

SB3865 Enrolled- 36 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 exclusive rights with respect to the exploration for
2 or exploitation of natural resources, but does not
3 include any territory or possession of the United
4 States.
5 (C) Holding companies.
6 (i) For purposes of this subparagraph, a
7 "holding company" is a corporation (other than a
8 corporation that is a financial organization under
9 paragraph (8) of this subsection (a) of Section
10 1501 because it is a bank holding company under
11 the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of
12 1956 (12 U.S.C. 1841, et seq.) or because it is
13 owned by a bank or a bank holding company) that
14 owns a controlling interest in one or more other
15 taxpayers ("controlled taxpayers"); that, during
16 the period that includes the taxable year and the
17 2 immediately preceding taxable years or, if the
18 corporation was formed during the current or
19 immediately preceding taxable year, the taxable
20 years in which the corporation has been in
21 existence, derived substantially all its gross
22 income from dividends, interest, rents, royalties,
23 fees or other charges received from controlled
24 taxpayers for the provision of services, and gains
25 on the sale or other disposition of interests in
26 controlled taxpayers or in property leased or

SB3865 Enrolled- 37 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 licensed to controlled taxpayers or used by the
2 taxpayer in providing services to controlled
3 taxpayers; and that incurs no substantial expenses
4 other than expenses (including interest and other
5 costs of borrowing) incurred in connection with
6 the acquisition and holding of interests in
7 controlled taxpayers and in the provision of
8 services to controlled taxpayers or in the leasing
9 or licensing of property to controlled taxpayers.
10 (ii) The income of a holding company which is
11 a member of more than one unitary business group
12 shall be included in each unitary business group
13 of which it is a member on a pro rata basis, by
14 including in each unitary business group that
15 portion of the base income of the holding company
16 that bears the same proportion to the total base
17 income of the holding company as the gross
18 receipts of the unitary business group bears to
19 the combined gross receipts of all unitary
20 business groups (in both cases without regard to
21 the holding company) or on any other reasonable
22 basis, consistently applied.
23 (iii) A holding company shall apportion its
24 business income under the subsection of Section
25 304 used by the other members of its unitary
26 business group. The apportionment factors of a

SB3865 Enrolled- 38 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 holding company which would be a member of more
2 than one unitary business group shall be included
3 with the apportionment factors of each unitary
4 business group of which it is a member on a pro
5 rata basis using the same method used in clause
6 (ii).
7 (iv) The provisions of this subparagraph (C)
8 are intended to clarify existing law.
9 (D) If including the base income and factors of a
10 holding company in more than one unitary business
11 group under subparagraph (C) does not fairly reflect
12 the degree of integration between the holding company
13 and one or more of the unitary business groups, the
14 dependence of the holding company and one or more of
15 the unitary business groups upon each other, or the
16 contributions between the holding company and one or
17 more of the unitary business groups, the holding
18 company may petition the Director, under the
19 procedures provided under Section 304(f), for
20 permission to include all base income and factors of
21 the holding company only with members of a unitary
22 business group apportioning their business income
23 under one subsection of subsections (a), (b), (c), or
24 (d) of Section 304. If the petition is granted, the
25 holding company shall be included in a unitary
26 business group only with persons apportioning their

SB3865 Enrolled- 39 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 business income under the selected subsection of
2 Section 304 until the Director grants a petition of
3 the holding company either to be included in more than
4 one unitary business group under subparagraph (C) or
5 to include its base income and factors only with
6 members of a unitary business group apportioning their
7 business income under a different subsection of
8 Section 304.
9 (E) If the unitary business group members'
10 accounting periods differ, the common parent's
11 accounting period or, if there is no common parent,
12 the accounting period of the member that is expected
13 to have, on a recurring basis, the greatest Illinois
14 income tax liability must be used to determine whether
15 to use the apportionment method provided in subsection
16 (a) or subsection (h) of Section 304. The prohibition
17 against membership in a unitary business group for
18 taxpayers ordinarily required to apportion income
19 under different subsections of Section 304 does not
20 apply to taxpayers required to apportion income under
21 subsection (a) and subsection (h) of Section 304. The
22 provisions of this amendatory Act of 1998 apply to tax
23 years ending on or after December 31, 1998.
24 (28) Subchapter S corporation. The term "Subchapter S
25 corporation" means a corporation for which there is in
26 effect an election under Section 1362 of the Internal

SB3865 Enrolled- 40 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 Revenue Code, or for which there is a federal election to
2 opt out of the provisions of the Subchapter S Revision Act
3 of 1982 and have applied instead the prior federal
4 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982.
5 (30) Foreign person. The term "foreign person" means
6 any person who is a nonresident individual who is a
7 national or citizen of a country other than the United
8 States alien individual and any nonindividual entity,
9 regardless of where created or organized, whose business
10 activity outside the United States is 80% or more of the
11 entity's total business activity.
12 (b) Other definitions.
13 (1) Words denoting number, gender, and so forth, when
14 used in this Act, where not otherwise distinctly expressed
15 or manifestly incompatible with the intent thereof:
16 (A) Words importing the singular include and apply
17 to several persons, parties or things;

19 singular; and

23 and assigns. The word "company" or "association", when

SB3865 Enrolled- 41 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 words, or words of similar import, were expressed.
2 (3) Other terms. Any term used in any Section of this

18of 1993 pursuant to the exercise of any right, power, duty,
19responsibility or matter of pending business transferred from

21Section shall be affected thereby, and all such rules and
22regulations shall become the rules and regulations of the

22Professional Educator License scholarship.
23 (a) Subject to appropriation, beginning with awards for
24the 2022-2023 academic year, the Commission shall award
25annually up to 250 Post-Master of Social Work School Social

SB3865 Enrolled- 58 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1Work Professional Educator License scholarships to a person
2who:
3 (1) holds a valid Illinois-licensed clinical social
4 work license or social work license;
5 (2) has obtained a master's degree in social work from
6 an approved program;
7 (3) is a United States citizen or eligible noncitizen;
8 and
9 (4) submits an application to the Commission for such
10 scholarship and agrees to take courses to obtain an
11 Illinois Professional Educator License with an endorsement
12 in School Social Work.
13 (b) If an appropriation for this Section for a given
14fiscal year is insufficient to provide scholarships to all
15qualified applicants, the Commission shall allocate the
16appropriation in accordance with this subsection (b). If funds
17are insufficient to provide all qualified applicants with a
18scholarship as authorized by this Section, the Commission
19shall allocate the available scholarship funds for that fiscal
20year to qualified applicants who submit a complete application
21on or before a date specified by the Commission, based on the
22following order of priority:
23 (1) firstly, to students who received a scholarship
24 under this Section in the prior academic year and who
25 remain eligible for a scholarship under this Section;
26 (2) secondly, to new, qualified applicants who are

SB3865 Enrolled- 59 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b

10elementary and secondary schools in this State, and the
11General Assembly finds that it is in the interest of this State
12to provide them with priority consideration for programs that
13encourage their participation in this field and thereby foster
14a profession that is more reflective of the diversity of
15Illinois students and the parents they will serve. A more
16reflective workforce in school social work allows improved
17outcomes for students and a better utilization of services.
18Therefore, the Commission shall give priority to those
19applicants who are members of a racial minority. In this
20subsection (c), "racial minority" means a person who is a
21citizen of the United States or a lawful permanent resident
22alien of the United States and who is:
23 (1) Black (a person having origins in any of the black
24 racial groups in Africa);

26 culture with origins in Mexico, South or Central America,

SB3865 Enrolled- 60 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b

2 (3) Asian American (a person having origins in any of
3 the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the
4 Indian Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); or
5 (4) American Indian or Alaskan Native (a person having
6 origins in any of the original peoples of North America).
7 (d) Each scholarship shall be applied to the payment of
8tuition and mandatory fees at the University of Illinois,
9Southern Illinois University, Chicago State University,
10Eastern Illinois University, Governors State University,
11Illinois State University, Northeastern Illinois University,
12Northern Illinois University, and Western Illinois University.
13Each scholarship may be applied to pay tuition and mandatory
14fees required to obtain an Illinois Professional Educator

15Act.
16 The State Treasurer, or his duly authorized
17representative, shall be named as a party to all proceedings
18in all cases involving claim for the loss of, or the permanent
19and complete loss of the use of one eye, one foot, one leg, one
20arm or one hand.
21 The State Treasurer or his duly authorized agent shall
22have the same rights as any other party to the proceeding,
23including the right to petition for review of any award. The
24reasonable expenses of litigation, such as medical
25examinations, testimony, and transcript of evidence, incurred
26by the State Treasurer or his duly authorized representative,

SB3865 Enrolled- 190 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1shall be borne by the Second Injury Fund.
2 If the award is not paid within 30 days after the date the
3award has become final, the Commission shall proceed to take
4judgment thereon in its own name as is provided for other
5awards by paragraph (g) of Section 19 of this Act and take the
6necessary steps to collect the award.
7 Any person, corporation or organization who has paid or
8become liable for the payment of burial expenses of the
9deceased employee may in his or its own name institute
10proceedings before the Commission for the collection thereof.
11 For the purpose of administration, receipts and
12disbursements, the Special Fund provided for in paragraph (f)
13of this Section shall be administered jointly with the Special
14Fund provided for in Section 7, paragraph (f) of the Workers'
15Occupational Diseases Act.
16 (g) All compensation, except for burial expenses provided
17in this Section to be paid in case accident results in death,
18shall be paid in installments equal to the percentage of the
19average earnings as provided for in Section 8, paragraph (b)
20of this Act, at the same intervals at which the wages or
21earnings of the employees were paid. If this is not feasible,
22then the installments shall be paid weekly. Such compensation
23may be paid in a lump sum upon petition as provided in Section
249 of this Act. However, in addition to the benefits provided by
25Section 9 of this Act where compensation for death is payable
26to the deceased's widow, widower or to the deceased's widow,

1widower and one or more children, and where a partial lump sum
2is applied for by such beneficiary or beneficiaries within 18
3months after the deceased's death, the Commission may, in its
4discretion, grant a partial lump sum of not to exceed 100 weeks
5of the compensation capitalized at their present value upon
6the basis of interest calculated at 3% per annum with annual
7rests, upon a showing that such partial lump sum is for the
8best interest of such beneficiary or beneficiaries.
9 (h) In case the injured employee is under 16 years of age
10at the time of the accident and is illegally employed, the
11amount of compensation payable under paragraphs (a), (b), (c),
12(d) and (f) of this Section shall be increased 50%.
13 Nothing herein contained repeals or amends the provisions
14of the Child Labor Law relating to the employment of minors
15under the age of 16 years.
16 However, where an employer has on file an employment
17certificate issued pursuant to the Child Labor Law or work
18permit issued pursuant to the Federal Fair Labor Standards
19Act, as amended, or a birth certificate properly and duly
20issued, such certificate, permit or birth certificate is
21conclusive evidence as to the age of the injured minor
22employee for the purposes of this Section only.
23 (i) Whenever the dependents of a deceased employee are
24noncitizens aliens not residing in the United States, Mexico
25or Canada, the amount of compensation payable is limited to
26the beneficiaries described in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of

SB3865 Enrolled- 192 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b

2paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section, except as
3otherwise provided by treaty.
4 In a case where any of the persons who would be entitled to
5compensation is living at any place outside of the United
6States, then payment shall be made to the personal
7representative of the deceased employee. The distribution by
8such personal representative to the persons entitled shall be
9made to such persons and in such manner as the Commission
10orders.

14amended by changing Section 1 as follows:
15 (820 ILCS 310/1) (from Ch. 48, par. 172.36)
16 Sec. 1. This Act shall be known and may be cited as the
17"Workers' Occupational Diseases Act".
18 (a) The term "employer" as used in this Act shall be
19construed to be:

3 express or implied, oral or written.
4 3. Where an employer operating under and subject to
5 the provisions of this Act loans an employee to another
6 such employer and such loaned employee sustains a
7 compensable occupational disease in the employment of such
8 borrowing employer and where such borrowing employer does
9 not provide or pay the benefits or payments due such
10 employee, such loaning employer shall be liable to provide
11 or pay all benefits or payments due such employee under
12 this Act and as to such employee the liability of such
13 loaning and borrowing employers shall be joint and
14 several, provided that such loaning employer shall in the
15 absence of agreement to the contrary be entitled to
16 receive from such borrowing employer full reimbursement
17 for all sums paid or incurred pursuant to this paragraph
18 together with reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses in
19 any hearings before the Illinois Workers' Compensation
20 Commission or in any action to secure such reimbursement.
21 Where any benefit is provided or paid by such loaning
22 employer, the employee shall have the duty of rendering
23 reasonable co-operation in any hearings, trials or
24 proceedings in the case, including such proceedings for
25 reimbursement.
26 Where an employee files an Application for Adjustment

SB3865 Enrolled- 194 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 of Claim with the Illinois Workers' Compensation
2 Commission alleging that his or her claim is covered by
3 the provisions of the preceding paragraph, and joining
4 both the alleged loaning and borrowing employers, they and
5 each of them, upon written demand by the employee and
6 within 7 days after receipt of such demand, shall have the
7 duty of filing with the Illinois Workers' Compensation
8 Commission a written admission or denial of the allegation
9 that the claim is covered by the provisions of the
10 preceding paragraph and in default of such filing or if
11 any such denial be ultimately determined not to have been
12 bona fide then the provisions of Paragraph K of Section 19
13 of this Act shall apply.
14 An employer whose business or enterprise or a
15 substantial part thereof consists of hiring, procuring or
16 furnishing employees to or for other employers operating
17 under and subject to the provisions of this Act for the
18 performance of the work of such other employers and who
19 pays such employees their salary or wage notwithstanding
20 that they are doing the work of such other employers shall
21 be deemed a loaning employer within the meaning and
22 provisions of this Section.
23 (b) The term "employee" as used in this Act, shall be
24construed to mean:
25 1. Every person in the service of the State, county,
26 city, town, township, incorporated village or school

SB3865 Enrolled- 195 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b

3 express or implied, oral or written, including any
4 official of the State, or of any county, city, town,
5 township, incorporated village, school district, body
6 politic or municipal corporation therein and except any
7 duly appointed member of the fire department in any city
8 whose population exceeds 500,000 according to the last
9 Federal or State census, and except any member of a fire
10 insurance patrol maintained by a board of underwriters in
11 this State. One employed by a contractor who has
12 contracted with the State, or a county, city, town,
13 township, incorporated village, school district, body
14 politic or municipal corporation therein, through its
15 representatives, shall not be considered as an employee of
16 the State, county, city, town, township, incorporated
17 village, school district, body politic or municipal
18 corporation which made the contract.
19 2. Every person in the service of another under any
20 contract of hire, express or implied, oral or written, who
21 contracts an occupational disease while working in the
22 State of Illinois, or who contracts an occupational
23 disease while working outside of the State of Illinois but
24 where the contract of hire is made within the State of
25 Illinois, and any person whose employment is principally
26 localized within the State of Illinois, regardless of the

SB3865 Enrolled- 196 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 place where the disease was contracted or place where the
2 contract of hire was made, including noncitizens aliens,
3 and minors who, for the purpose of this Act, except
4 Section 3 hereof, shall be considered the same and have
5 the same power to contract, receive payments and give
6 quittances therefor, as adult employees. An employee or
7 his or her dependents under this Act who shall have a cause
8 of action by reason of an occupational disease,
9 disablement or death arising out of and in the course of
10 his or her employment may elect or pursue his or her remedy
11 in the State where the disease was contracted, or in the
12 State where the contract of hire is made, or in the State
13 where the employment is principally localized.
14 (c) "Commission" means the Illinois Workers' Compensation
15Commission created by the Workers' Compensation Act, approved
16July 9, 1951, as amended.
17 (d) In this Act the term "Occupational Disease" means a
18disease arising out of and in the course of the employment or
19which has become aggravated and rendered disabling as a result
20of the exposure of the employment. Such aggravation shall
21arise out of a risk peculiar to or increased by the employment
22and not common to the general public.
23 A disease shall be deemed to arise out of the employment if
24there is apparent to the rational mind, upon consideration of
25all the circumstances, a causal connection between the
26conditions under which the work is performed and the

SB3865 Enrolled- 197 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1occupational disease. The disease need not to have been
2foreseen or expected but after its contraction it must appear
3to have had its origin or aggravation in a risk connected with
4the employment and to have flowed from that source as a
5rational consequence.
6 An employee shall be conclusively deemed to have been
7exposed to the hazards of an occupational disease when, for
8any length of time however short, he or she is employed in an
9occupation or process in which the hazard of the disease
10exists; provided however, that in a claim of exposure to
11atomic radiation, the fact of such exposure must be verified
12by the records of the central registry of radiation exposure
13maintained by the Department of Public Health or by some other
14recognized governmental agency maintaining records of such
15exposures whenever and to the extent that the records are on
16file with the Department of Public Health or the agency.
17 Any injury to or disease or death of an employee arising
18from the administration of a vaccine, including without
19limitation smallpox vaccine, to prepare for, or as a response
20to, a threatened or potential bioterrorist incident to the
21employee as part of a voluntary inoculation program in
22connection with the person's employment or in connection with
23any governmental program or recommendation for the inoculation
24of workers in the employee's occupation, geographical area, or
25other category that includes the employee is deemed to arise
26out of and in the course of the employment for all purposes

SB3865 Enrolled- 198 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1under this Act. This paragraph added by Public Act 93-829 is
2declarative of existing law and is not a new enactment.
3 The employer liable for the compensation in this Act
4provided shall be the employer in whose employment the
5employee was last exposed to the hazard of the occupational
6disease claimed upon regardless of the length of time of such
7last exposure, except, in cases of silicosis or asbestosis,
8the only employer liable shall be the last employer in whose
9employment the employee was last exposed during a period of 60
10days or more after the effective date of this Act, to the
11hazard of such occupational disease, and, in such cases, an
12exposure during a period of less than 60 days, after the
13effective date of this Act, shall not be deemed a last
14exposure. If a miner who is suffering or suffered from
15pneumoconiosis was employed for 10 years or more in one or more
16coal mines there shall, effective July 1, 1973 be a rebuttable
17presumption that his or her pneumoconiosis arose out of such
18employment.
19 If a deceased miner was employed for 10 years or more in
20one or more coal mines and died from a respirable disease there
21shall, effective July 1, 1973, be a rebuttable presumption
22that his or her death was due to pneumoconiosis.
23 Any condition or impairment of health of an employee
24employed as a firefighter, emergency medical technician (EMT),
25emergency medical technician-intermediate (EMT-I), advanced
26emergency medical technician (A-EMT), or paramedic which

SB3865 Enrolled- 199 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1results directly or indirectly from any bloodborne pathogen,
2lung or respiratory disease or condition, heart or vascular
3disease or condition, hypertension, tuberculosis, or cancer
4resulting in any disability (temporary, permanent, total, or
5partial) to the employee shall be rebuttably presumed to arise
6out of and in the course of the employee's firefighting, EMT,
7EMT-I, A-EMT, or paramedic employment and, further, shall be
8rebuttably presumed to be causally connected to the hazards or
9exposures of the employment. This presumption shall also apply
10to any hernia or hearing loss suffered by an employee employed
11as a firefighter, EMT, EMT-I, A-EMT, or paramedic. However,
12this presumption shall not apply to any employee who has been
13employed as a firefighter, EMT, EMT-I, A-EMT, or paramedic for
14less than 5 years at the time he or she files an Application
15for Adjustment of Claim concerning this condition or
16impairment with the Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission.
17The rebuttable presumption established under this subsection,
18however, does not apply to an emergency medical technician
19(EMT), emergency medical technician-intermediate (EMT-I),
20advanced emergency medical technician (A-EMT), or paramedic
21employed by a private employer if the employee spends the
22preponderance of his or her work time for that employer
23engaged in medical transfers between medical care facilities
24or non-emergency medical transfers to or from medical care
25facilities. The changes made to this subsection by this
26amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly shall be narrowly

SB3865 Enrolled- 200 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1construed. The Finding and Decision of the Illinois Workers'
2Compensation Commission under only the rebuttable presumption
3provision of this paragraph shall not be admissible or be
4deemed res judicata in any disability claim under the Illinois
5Pension Code arising out of the same medical condition;
6however, this sentence makes no change to the law set forth in
7Krohe v. City of Bloomington, 204 Ill.2d 392.
8 The insurance carrier liable shall be the carrier whose
9policy was in effect covering the employer liable on the last
10day of the exposure rendering such employer liable in
11accordance with the provisions of this Act.
12 (e) "Disablement" means an impairment or partial
13impairment, temporary or permanent, in the function of the
14body or any of the members of the body, or the event of
15becoming disabled from earning full wages at the work in which
16the employee was engaged when last exposed to the hazards of
17the occupational disease by the employer from whom he or she
18claims compensation, or equal wages in other suitable
19employment; and "disability" means the state of being so
20incapacitated.
21 (f) No compensation shall be payable for or on account of
22any occupational disease unless disablement, as herein
23defined, occurs within two years after the last day of the last
24exposure to the hazards of the disease, except in cases of
25occupational disease caused by berylliosis or by the
26inhalation of silica dust or asbestos dust and, in such cases,

SB3865 Enrolled- 201 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1within 3 years after the last day of the last exposure to the
2hazards of such disease and except in the case of occupational
3disease caused by exposure to radiological materials or
4equipment, and in such case, within 25 years after the last day
5of last exposure to the hazards of such disease.
6 (g)(1) In any proceeding before the Commission in which
7the employee is a COVID-19 first responder or front-line
8worker as defined in this subsection, if the employee's injury
9or occupational disease resulted from exposure to and
10contraction of COVID-19, the exposure and contraction shall be
11rebuttably presumed to have arisen out of and in the course of
12the employee's first responder or front-line worker employment
13and the injury or occupational disease shall be rebuttably
14presumed to be causally connected to the hazards or exposures
15of the employee's first responder or front-line worker
16employment.
17 (2) The term "COVID-19 first responder or front-line
18worker" means: all individuals employed as police, fire
19personnel, emergency medical technicians, or paramedics; all
20individuals employed and considered as first responders; all
21workers for health care providers, including nursing homes and
22rehabilitation facilities and home care workers; corrections
23officers; and any individuals employed by essential businesses
24and operations as defined in Executive Order 2020-10 dated
25March 20, 2020, as long as individuals employed by essential
26businesses and operations are required by their employment to

SB3865 Enrolled- 202 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1encounter members of the general public or to work in
2employment locations of more than 15 employees. For purposes
3of this subsection only, an employee's home or place of

7rebutted by evidence, including, but not limited to, the
8following:
9 (A) the employee was working from his or her home, on
10 leave from his or her employment, or some combination
11 thereof, for a period of 14 or more consecutive days
12 immediately prior to the employee's injury, occupational
13 disease, or period of incapacity resulted from exposure to
14 COVID-19; or
15 (B) the employer was engaging in and applying to the
16 fullest extent possible or enforcing to the best of its
17 ability industry-specific workplace sanitation, social

20 and Prevention or Illinois Department of Public Health or
21 was using a combination of administrative controls,
22 engineering controls, or personal protective equipment to
23 reduce the transmission of COVID-19 to all employees for
24 at least 14 consecutive days prior to the employee's
25 injury, occupational disease, or period of incapacity
26 resulting from exposure to COVID-19. For purposes of this

SB3865 Enrolled- 203 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 subsection, "updated" means the guidance in effect at
2 least 14 days prior to the COVID-19 diagnosis. For
3 purposes of this subsection, "personal protective
4 equipment" means industry-specific equipment worn to
5 minimize exposure to hazards that cause illnesses or
6 serious injuries, which may result from contact with
7 biological, chemical, radiological, physical, electrical,
8 mechanical, or other workplace hazards. "Personal
9 protective equipment" includes, but is not limited to,
10 items such as face coverings, gloves, safety glasses,
11 safety face shields, barriers, shoes, earplugs or muffs,
12 hard hats, respirators, coveralls, vests, and full body
13 suits; or
14 (C) the employee was exposed to COVID-19 by an
15 alternate source.
16 (4) The rebuttable presumption created in this subsection
17applies to all cases tried after June 5, 2020 (the effective
18date of Public Act 101-633) and in which the diagnosis of
19COVID-19 was made on or after March 9, 2020 and on or before
20June 30, 2021 (including the period between December 31, 2020
21and the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 101st
22General Assembly).
23 (5) Under no circumstances shall any COVID-19 case
24increase or affect any employer's workers' compensation
25insurance experience rating or modification, but COVID-19
26costs may be included in determining overall State loss costs.

SB3865 Enrolled- 204 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b
1 (6) In order for the presumption created in this
2subsection to apply at trial, for COVID-19 diagnoses occurring
3on or before June 15, 2020, an employee must provide a
4confirmed medical diagnosis by a licensed medical practitioner
5or a positive laboratory test for COVID-19 or for COVID-19
6antibodies; for COVID-19 diagnoses occurring after June 15,
72020, an employee must provide a positive laboratory test for
8COVID-19 or for COVID-19 antibodies.
9 (7) The presumption created in this subsection does not
10apply if the employee's place of employment was solely the
11employee's home or residence for a period of 14 or more
12consecutive days immediately prior to the employee's injury,
13occupational disease, or period of incapacity resulted from
14exposure to COVID-19.
15 (8) The date of injury or the beginning of the employee's
16occupational disease or period of disability is either the
17date that the employee was unable to work due to contraction of
18COVID-19 or was unable to work due to symptoms that were later
19diagnosed as COVID-19, whichever came first.
20 (9) An employee who contracts COVID-19, but fails to
21establish the rebuttable presumption is not precluded from
22filing for compensation under this Act or under the Workers'
23Compensation Act.
24 (10) To qualify for temporary total disability benefits
25under the presumption created in this subsection, the employee
26must be certified for or recertified for temporary disability.

SB3865 Enrolled- 205 -LRB102 24242 RJF 33473 b

2liability for temporary total disability due to an employee as
3a result of the employee contracting COVID-19 for (A) any sick
4leave benefits or extended salary benefits paid to the
5employee by the employer under Emergency Family Medical Leave
6Expansion Act, Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act of the Families
7First Coronavirus Response Act, or any other federal law, or
8(B) any other credit to which an employer is entitled under the
9Workers' Compensation Act.
