Section 36-29-20 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature finds that private employers
have provided their employees with flexible employee benefit plans which provide a savings
both to the employer and the employee, and that the State of Alabama, its departments and
agencies, may provide the same tax-effective benefits to its employees. It is, therefore,
the intent of the Legislature to provide for the establishment of a "cafeteria plan"
or flexible employee benefit plan in compliance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, with
every effort being used to utilize the existing resources of the state Comptroller to implement
said plan in conjunction with the Flexible Employees Benefits Board. (Acts 1989, No. 89-644,
p. 1272, §1.)...

Section 16-25A-40 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that private employers have provided
their employees with flexible employee benefit plans which provide a savings both to the employer
and the employee, and that the State of Alabama, its departments and agencies, may provide

plan" or flexible employee benefit plan to be made available to all employees in public
education in compliance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and to implement the plan
in accordance with the rules and regulations established by the Public Education Flexible
Employees' Benefit Board created by this article. (Act 2004-650, 1st Sp. Sess., p. 31, §1.)...

Section 25-5-14 Legislative findings and intent as to actions filed by injured employee against
officers, etc., of same employer. The Legislature finds that actions filed on behalf of injured
employees against officers, directors, agents, servants, or employees of the same employer
seeking to recover damages in excess of amounts received or receivable from the employer under
the workers' compensation statutes of this state and predicated upon claimed negligent or
wanton conduct resulting in injuries arising out of and in the course of employment are contrary
to the intent of the Legislature in adopting a comprehensive workers' compensation scheme
and are producing a debilitating and adverse effect upon efforts to retain existing, and to
attract new industry to this state. Specifically, the existence of such causes of action places
this state at a serious disadvantage in comparison to the existing laws of other states with
whom this state competes in seeking to attract and retain...
