Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte signed a bill expanding the types of cancers that are presumed compensable for firefighters.
The governor on Thursday signed S.B. 310, which creates presumptions that cervical cancer is work-related after 15 years of service and that testicular cancer arose from employment after 10 years of service.
Mr. Gianforte also signed H.B. 702 on Thursday, extending a program that reimburses private employers for workers compensation costs associated with student interns. The program was scheduled to sunset June 30.
