Compensation Benefits for State Employees


 

Sec. 5-145b. Hypertension or heart disease in motor vehicle inspectors. Any condition of impairment of health caused by hypertension or heart disease resulting in total or partial disability or death to an inspector of vehicles for the Department of Motor Vehicles who successfully passed a physical examination on entry into such service, which examination failed to reveal any evidence of such condition, shall be presumed to have been suffered in the performance of his duty. Nothing herein shall be construed to affect the provisions of chapter 568.

(1967, P.A. 899, S. 2.)

History: (Revisor's note: In 1997 references throughout the general statutes to "Motor Vehicle(s) Commissioner" and "Motor Vehicle(s) Department" were replaced editorially by the Revisors with "Commissioner of Motor Vehicles" or "Department of Motor Vehicles", as the case may be, for consistency with customary statutory usage).
