Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 4a-3.

(a)  The Board shall consist of the Chairman of the
Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission, as Chairman of the Board, and six other members
appointed by the Chairman who shall be expert in matters of self-insurance
for workers' compensation liability.  One such member shall represent the
general public.  The Trustees shall initially be appointed by the Chairman

Trustees initially appointed by the Chairman shall serve for a two-year
term ending January 1, 1988, and three shall serve for a four-year term

(b) A vacancy in the office of any appointed member shall occur upon his
resignation, death, or conviction of a felony.  The Chairman may remove any
member from office on a formal finding of incompetence, neglect of duty or
malfeasance in office.  Within 30 days after the office of any appointed
member becomes vacant for any reason, the Chairman shall fill that vacancy
for the unexpired term in the same manner as that in which appointments are made.
