Download or read book Workers Compensation written by Peter Lencsis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1998-06-25 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For human resource professionals, labor law specialists, and others involved in the practice of labor-management relations, Lencsis provides a concise, easily-accessed description of the workers compensation system in the United States, its governing laws and also its insurance aspects. Covering all major facets of workers compensation legislation and the insurance and risk management techniques used to comply with them, his book will have equal benefits for the staffs of insurance companies and brokerages, compensation and claims professionals, and for workers compensation executives in governmental agencies. Lencsis explains that workers compensation laws were enacted on the federal and state levels in the early part of the century and have endured in the same basic form to the present. They represent a radical departure from common law concepts of negligence and damages in that they provide for statutory medical and wage-loss benefits regardless of who is at fault. Lencsis explores how insurance mechanisms in the public and private sectors are used to fund benefits and to make their delivery as secure and certain as possible. He also notes that workers compensation insurance is a major part of the property-casualty insurance business, and as such has recently become one of its most profitable areas. Lencsis' book helps readers to understand these concepts and to work with them in the day-to-day conduct of their business.

Download or read book Guide For Workers Compensation Law written by Laureen Elser and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-05-14 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worker's compensation until the name was changed to make it gender-neutral) is a form of insurance providing wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured in the course of employment in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee's right to sue his or her employer for the tort of negligence. The trade-off between assured, limited coverage and lack of recourse outside the worker compensation system is known as "the compensation bargain". One of the problems that the compensation bargain solved is the problem of employers becoming insolvent as a result of high damage awards. The system of collective liability was created to prevent that, and thus to ensure security of compensation to the workers. This book gives you basic and practical knowledge and understanding how long things take, why things happen, and what to expect. This Book is not a replacement for obtaining legal advice from an attorney, but is a supplement to help educate and insulate you from some of the surprises that otherwise may come your way.
