UNINSURED EMPLOYERS' FUND BOARD

[photo, Hampton Plaza, 300 East Joppa Road, Towson, Maryland] In 1983, the Uninsured Employers' Fund Board was created to protect workers whose employers are not insured under Workers' Compensation (Chapter 576, Acts of 1983). The Board reviews and investigates claims by employees, or by their dependents in case of death, who have not been compensated properly by their employer. The Board also supervises the operation and administration of the Uninsured Employers' Fund.

The Uninsured Employers Fund derives its revenue from a 2% assessment on awards against and settlements with employers or insurers. The Fund also collects penalties from sanctions on uninsured employers. In addition, it recovers benefits and medical expenses paid by the Fund on uninsured claims (Code Labor & Employment Article, secs. 9-1001 through 9-1011).

The Board's three members are appointed to four-year terms by the Governor with Senate advice and consent (Code Labor and Employment Article, secs. 10-301 through 10-320).
