1 Arizona Employment Law Letter For March 2006 Lewis and Roca Lawyers LLP 2006 WHAT S HAPPENING IN THE LEGISLATURE? By Sonya K. Parrish-Boun and Gregory Y. Harris The Arizona Legislature is back in session. As we ve done in the past, we ll follow the progress of bills that may affect you, keeping in mind that most of them will die before ever getting heard. Remember, however, that you can affect the bills direction by letting your representatives know what you think. We encourage you to have your voice heard on the issues that affect your business. Go to to find information about pending legislation, including copies of bills, amendments, bill summaries, and committee votes, and to track the history of a particular piece of legislation. Making the Call Making the call can make a difference. But, please keep a few important points in mind when you decide to contact legislators: Legislators and staff have little time and long memories, so brevity is generally appreciated and poor manners are remembered long past the resolution of the issue that prompted the comment. Your opinions do matter, and your comments may even trigger a dialogue with a legislator. Always remember that you can share only your views; otherwise, you have to register as a lobbyist. So, What s Up in the Arizona Legislature? Below is a summary of all the employment-related bills that have been introduced in the Arizona Legislature this session, and their status as of press time: Bills Related to Workers Compensation H2111: Workers Comp; Drugs and Alcohol The former statutory provision stating that an employee was ineligible for workers comp if an accident resulted from the employee s use of alcohol or controlled substance is deleted because the statute was declared unconstitutional last year. The employer has the burden of proving that the employee s use of drugs or alcohol was a substantial contributing cause of the accident.

If an employer fails to comply, a complaint may be submitted to the Labor Department of the Arizona Industrial Commission.
