attributable to the contractual agreement has been reported and the premiums
collected covering all services performed incidental to, arising out of, or

from the site or sites. Nothing in this regulation shall be construed to
expand, reduce, or otherwise modify current statutory law, regulations, or
judicial decisions regarding the scope of workers compensation obligations
regarding off-site injuries. This regulation shall be limited to requiring that any controlled insurance program provide coverage for the
work-related off-site injuries only to the extent that the injuries would
otherwise be covered under existing law and regulations. This regulation shall

for work-related off-site injuries to the extent that the injuries would be
covered under existing law as interpreted by the courts.

required to provide employment to a worker who has been injured on the job
unless both of the following conditions are met:
(1) The worker’s treating health
care provider certifies that the worker is fit to perform the participant’s
work on the job site consistent with the treating physician’s limitations.
(2) The employer has the preinjury job or modified work available. (Authorized by K.S.A. 40-103, 2009 HB 2214, sec. 3, and
