Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Accident and Employer's Liability Insurance Accident insurance is of comparatively modern origin. In the seventeenth century the idea of insuring individuals against accidents seems to have been first contemplated in France. But not until the middle of the nineteenth century was the first English company formed for this purpose. The first American company was not organized until about 1860. In England the policies were framed for the purpose of paying definite indemnities for specific injuries, such as the loss of a limb, blindness, etc., The earliest American policies were based on their English prototypes. They were not adapted to the newer country, with its different customs and habits of life, its varied occupations and risks, and the companies which had embarked in the business met with disaster and failure. Shortly the pioneers in the industry undertook the scientific construction of a system of accident insurance, evolving new tables of rates, new classifications of risks, and new methods of business, based upon conditions in the United States. In a short time it was demonstrated that by a statistical and mathematical calculation a table of risks could be prepared on the same principle employed in the construction of mortality tables by life insurance companies, upon which could be based a reliable and equitable system of accident insurance. In the United States accident insurance was inaugurated with the sale of so-called "accident tickets" to travelers on railroads covering only risks of travel, and in most instances good only for periods of twenty-four hours or the duration of specific trips. These tickets were sold at railroad stations. It soon became manifest that only a small percentage, not above ten per cent., of accidents resulted from traveling. Gradually the policies were made broader and more comprehensive in their scope. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Selection of Cases on the Law of Insurance, Especially Fire, Life, Accident, Marine, and Employers Liability: With an Appendix of Forms, Etc This is a true case book. From the officially reported cases, as here reprinted, the student is expected to deduce for himself the precise rulings of the courts, which together constitute a comprehensive summary of the law of insurance. The brief headnotes indicate the topics or questions involved, but give no clue to the decisions of the courts. The statements of fact, also, have, in most instances, been rewritten. As an aid to an interesting discussion and profitable development of certain doctrines, a case on either side of the border line is reproduced. In Part I general principles are considered; and, in Part II, the more significant clauses of the policies, in the sequence in which they occur in the several instruments. Definitions, explanations, subsidiary points, numerous condensed cases and citations of selected authorities to date are given in finer print. Some such supplementary treatment by way of amplification or explanation is almost a necessity. Many of the decisions in insurance law are highly exceptional or arbitrary in their character. A few cases, culled here and there from thirty thousand, if unqualified, are too apt to be occasions of stumbling as well as of support. We are satisfied to train our students to reason, provided only they reason in terms of sound law. Otherwise they must fall short of attaining success in their professional career. If the class is to study the case of Home Mutual Ins. Co. v. Tompkies, or similar ruling, they must also compare with it the case of Brighton Beach Racing Assn. 1. Home Ins. Co., for not even an expert might confidently infer that the courts would draw the dividing line between the two.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Work Accident Indemnity in Iowa This volume is an outgrowth of the chapter on The Law of Employers' Liability in the writer's History of Labor Legislation in Iowa a book published by The State His torical Society of Iowa in 1910. An expansion Of that chap ter which would bring the narrative down to date and sup plement the analysis of Iowa laws with a comparative survey of accident indemnity in other States and countries was undertaken early in the spring of 1911 at the request of The State Historical Society of Iowa. Originally designed as a paper for the Iowa Applied History Series, it soon appeared that so short a sketch would not in itself be adequate in deal ing with a subject at once so large, so complicated and, in the United States, so comparatively new. The study has, accordingly, grown to the proportions of a volume, and the paper which was at first planned has been issued as an abridgment in the Iowa Applied History Series.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addresses Made at the Fourth Annual Meeting of the Liability Insurance Association, 1911 Last summer when Mr. Lawson wrote asking me to give a paper at this Conference, he suggested for my title - "Workmen's Compensation from the Viewpoint of the Social-Welfare Worker." I resented this title for two reasons. First, because I'm not a "Social-Welfare Worker" - I'd rather have you know that I am a member of the Bar and an officer of the State. Second, because there is no "social-welfare worker's" point of view toward the problems of progress - no special point of view, I mean. The social worker's point of view is the point of view of the manufacturer when the competitive struggle lets up long enough for him to look rationally upon the life of the community around him - of the workman sure of his job, who dares take time to think of the common good - of the lawyer old and wise, or young and free enough to consider in his idle moments how a law serves justice, not merely how it helps or hinders him in winning a case - of the insurance man, who in the midst of his fight to get risks away from the other fellow, now and then gets a vision of what vast service the insurance business could be to humanity. In short, the social worker's point of view is just the average good citizen's point of view, if you catch him in a moment when he is altogether free from that self interest which is as a general thing so necessary to his success in the business world - it is the point of view of human welfare - the common good. And the reason why the social worker takes this point of view all the time, while the average citizen takes it only at his best and freest moments, is that it goes with the social worker's job. Now, what I resented was this: that you should assume that the viewpoint of general human welfare belonged exclusively to the social worker, that it was none of the employer's business, or the workman's business, or the lawyer's business, or the insurance man's business.

Download or read book Liability and Compensation Insurance written by Ralph H. Blanchard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liability and Compensation Insurance: Industrial Accidents and Their Prevention, Employers' Liability, Workmen's Compensation, Insurance of Employers' Liability and Workmen's Compensation The inadequacy of the employers' liability principle gave rise to a demand for more liberal legislation and the period beginning with 1911 has been marked by the enactment of workmen's compensation laws granting benefits to workmen for practically all injuries occurring during working hours. Such laws are now in force in thirty-two states and two territories, and an act was passed in 1916 covering all civil employees in the service of the Federal Government. These developments have broadened and intensified the need for insurance to relieve employers of the uncertain and heavy burden of payments to employees and to secure workmen in their rights to receive compensation. To furnish insurance commensurate with these needs both private and governmental agencies have been created and extended. Workmen's compensation and its insurance involve numberless intricate problems, legislative, administrative, and technical. The revolutionary nature of the principle and its rapid adoption have made it difficult to arrive at adequate solutions. Much remains to be done, but the accomplishments of legislators, public and private officials, and insurance scientists have been remarkable, and what might have been a growth of many years has been compressed into six. The work of these six years has been fundamental, precedent has not been allowed to rule, and the future will probably see the development of present principles rather than the discovery of new ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Federal Employers' Liability Act: Being a Treatise on the Federal Act of April 22, 1908, and the Amendment of April 5, 1910 The rights and liabilities of carriers by rail and their employ ees under the Federal Employers' Liability Act is a subject of the widest possible interest. N o lawyer bringing or defending an action against a carrier by rail for the death or injury of an employee can afford to take a single step without a thorough knowledge of its provisions and of the decisions thereunder. It is the purpose of this little volume to set up the waymarks and enable the practitioner to get his bearings from an examination of the principles, developed in the light of decided cases, and herein set forth. To this end, the author has endeavored, not to put any great amount of originality into the composition of the text, but rather to present in an orderly way and with such intelligence as he possesses the law as actually declared by the courts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Employers' Liability Insurance: Report of Committee to National Metal Trades Association It will be observed from the brief summary above that the sole basis of recovery by the servant for injuries received is the negligence of the master in failure in one of the duties on his part incident to the contract of hiring. It will also be observed from the summary that it is not universally true that where the master is guilty of negligence the servant can recover compensation, for, if the master be guilty of negligence, and at the time of the injury to the servant he himself was not in the exercise of due care for his own safety (such care as an ordinarily prudent man would exercise for his own safety under the same or like circumstances), or was guilty himself of negligence, and such want of due care, or his own negligence con tributed in the slightest degree to the injury, the servant forfeits his right to compensation to the master, notwithstanding the mas ter's negligence.
