At its Business Meeting on June 21, the SC Workers' Compensation Commission elected Commissioner T. Scott Beck as Interim Chairman effective July 1, 2010, replacing Commissioner Andrea C. Roche, whose two-year term as Chairman expired on June 30, 2010. Chairman Beck's current term on the Commission began July 1, 2008 and runs through June 30, 2014. The chairman is appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate. In the event the Governor does not appoint another chairman at the expiration of the two-year term, the statute calls for a majority of the Commission to elect from among its members an interim chairman, who shall serve until the Governor appoints another chairman.
