Does the company have workers compensation liabilities for employees injured in off-duty social, recreational or athletic activities?
These activities are not covered under an employer’s workers compensation policy provided that the employer posts a notice to this effect prior to the off-duty social, recreational or athletic event. However, if the activity were an expressed or implied employment requirement, then an injury sustained during such activity would be compensable.
