Description

This book provides an international comparison of workers' compensation insurance practices. It begins with an explanation of the major characteristics of a workers' compensation program such as which workers are covered and what medical care of expense benefits are provided. The book: describes the minimum standards prescribed by the International Labor Organization in 1964 and the United States National Commission on State Workmen's Compensation Laws in 1972; summarizes what options 136 nations have selected for each of the major characteristics; shows how these options tend to vary from nation to nation according to location, income status, and its security system; and describes in detail the workers' compensation program in 13 nations including the U.S., U.K., Japan, Hungary, The Netherlands, and Germany, to name a few. The nations were selected because they represent a wide variety of the approaches that have been made to workers' compensation programs throughout the world. This book is an invaluable reference source for anyone working in the areas of industrial relations, insurance, labor economics, and actuarial studies.
