Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores concepts of workers' compensation acts as they were at the turn of the 20th century. The author provides an extensive study of the laws enacted in Britain in the late 1800s and 1900s, analysing the debates that accompanied their enactment. The author assesses the extent to which they succeeded or failed in achieving the objectives of those who campaigned for them, and how disputes were adjudicated under the 1897 Act. The book offers historical context on the development of workers' compensation laws, exploring the social, economic, and political factors that led to their enactment. It also discusses the legal precedents and theoretical foundations underlying the principles of employers' liability at the time. By examining the historical evolution of these laws, the author provides valuable insights into the ongoing debate surrounding workers' rights and the role of the state in ensuring fair compensation for workplace injuries.
