Update on California Workers’ Compensation Reform Efforts: APCIA Launches Public Awareness Campaign 

Author, David Garcia, President & CEO, Rancho Mesa Insurance Services, Inc.

As part of Rancho Mesa’s ongoing efforts to support meaningful reform around cumulative trauma claims, I want to share an important update on recent developments within the California workers’ compensation system.

The American Property Casualty Insurance Association (APCIA), in collaboration with a broad coalition of business organizations, has launched a new public awareness campaign: “Fix CA Workers’ Comp Now.” This initiative includes a dedicated website, media outreach, and targeted digital advertising across social media, streaming services, and connected TV platforms.

What this means for California businesses:

  1. The coalition is advocating for practical reforms aimed at improving the stability, fairness, and long-term sustainability of California’s workers’ compensation system.

  2. The current campaign is focused on building awareness and support, and is not yet tied to a specific piece of legislation.

  3. More detailed updates on potential legislative proposals and timelines will be shared as the effort progresses.

You can learn more and share the initiative at the Fix CA Workers' Comp Now website.

We will continue to closely monitor these developments and keep our clients informed as additional details emerge. If you have questions or would like to discuss how this may impact your organization, please reach out to Rancho Mesa at any time.
