Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores and compares social and economic principles associated with worker's compensation, with a focus on effective approaches to reducing workplace accidents and systematic methods of accident prevention. Its objective is to outline a framework from which employers and policymakers can develop their own best practices and legal frameworks. The author's main suggestion is for a collective liability system run via the state, with insurance premiums levied based on an actuarial assessment of the risk of industrial accidents within different industries. This book is significant because it collates and compares different approaches to worker's compensation and makes the case that a state-run collective liability system is the most effective and beneficial to both employers and workers.
