AL HB95

Expands the definition of "law enforcement officer" to include any full-time law enforcement officer with arrest power employed by any state agency, department, board, commission, institution, municipality, or county in Alabama, not just state troopers and municipal police.

Adds cancer, HIV, and hepatitis to the list of occupational diseases (previously limited to hypertension, heart disease, and respiratory disease) that qualify law enforcement officers for disability and death benefits.

Requires law enforcement officers claiming cancer, HIV, or hepatitis benefits to demonstrate by sufficient evidence that the disease was caused by significant exposure to a known causative agent during employment that exceeded general population exposure.

Mandates officers report sudden exposure to causative agents within five days of occurrence and long-term exposure within 90 days of medical diagnosis, or lose eligibility for benefits.

Prohibits county and municipal law enforcement officers receiving benefits under this article from also receiving workers' compensation benefits for the same occupational disease.
