An employee got hurt on the job, was unable to work for a period of time, and received Workers’ Compensation benefits. His employer did not deduct the employee’s share of health insurance premiums from his Worker’s Compensation payment or otherwise notify the employee as to how he should continue to make contributions toward his health insurance. The health insurance was maintained by the employer for six months. Thereafter, the employee was informed that his health insurance coverage had been terminated. The employer claimed that the reason for the termination was non-payment of the employee’s premiums and thus, no COBRA notification was required. Did this employee experience a qualifying event? Were his COBRA rights violated?
