An Act to amend the Government Employees Compensation Act = Loi modifiant la Loi sur l'indemnisation des agents de l'État.: XB441-357/1-PDF

"This enactment amends the Government Employees Compensation Act to broaden the entitlement of federal employees to compensation for work-related injuries and disabilities. It creates a presumption that certain mental health disorders among certain federal employees are caused by the circumstances of their employment and provides for compensation to be paid to the employees or their dependants. This enactment also repeals a bar on claims against the Crown other than for compensation under the Act. Finally, it replaces the term "workmen" with the term "workers""--Summary, page ii.
