Book excerpt: "Historically, the highest rates of fatal and nonfatal injury have occurred in the mining industry. During the 85-year period from 1911 to 1995, more than 103,000 workers were fatally injured in mining. From 1911 through 1915 alone, 16,646 fatalities occurred, and the annual average fatality rate exceeded 300 per 100,000 workers. By the early 1950s, annual fatality rates in coal mining had declined to 150 per 100,000 workers, but rates increased prior to passage of the Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969. Similarly, fatality rates in metal and nonmetal mining fell to 66 per 100,000 workers in the early 1960s, but rose before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 was enacted. After passage of the two Federal mine acts, mining fatality rates decreased substantially. During the 10-year period 1988 - 1997, 993 mine workers were fatally injured. The average annual mine operator fatality rate was 28.5 per 100,000 miners. Fatality rates in underground mines were higher than those in surface mines. A trend toward decreasing fatality rates with increasing mine size was observed. The types of incidents associated with the highest fatality rates were powered haulage, fall of ground from in place, and machinery. The mining industry experienced 170,635 lost-workday injury cases and 6,840,987 lost workdays (including restricted workdays) during 1988 - 1997. The average annual rate was 5.5 cases per 100 full-time workers. The average number of workdays lost per case was 40. Underground mines were associated with the highest injury rates. For example, the underground areas of coal mines accounted for 65,668 cases and an average annual rate of 11.9 cases per 100 full-time workers. The leading types of incidents associated with lost-workday cases were handling materials, slip or fall of person, powered haulage, machinery, and hand tools. Leading types of injuries associated with lost workdays included sprains to the back region, sprains to the lower extremities (primarily the knee), amputations of the arms or hands (primarily the fingers), and fractures to the lower extremities." - NIOSHTIC-2

Book Synopsis Handbook of Work Disability by : Patrick Loisel
Download or read book Handbook of Work Disability written by Patrick Loisel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the developing field of Work Disability Prevention. Work disability does not only involve occupational disorders originating from the work or at the workplace, but addresses work absenteeism originating from any disorder or accident. This topic has become of primary importance due to the huge compensation costs and health issues involved. For employers it is a unique burden and in many countries compensation is not even linked to the cause of the disorder. In the past twenty years, studies have accumulated which emphasize the social causes of work disability. Governments and NGOs such as the World Bank, the International Labor Organization, and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development have produced alarming reports on the extent of this problem for developed and developing countries. However, no comprehensive book is presently available to help them address this emerging field where new knowledge should induce new ways of management.

Book Synopsis Do Immigrants Work in Riskier Jobs? by : Pia M. Orrenius
Download or read book Do Immigrants Work in Riskier Jobs? written by Pia M. Orrenius and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent reports suggest that immigrants are more likely to hold jobs with worse working conditions than U.S.-born workers, perhaps because immigrants work in jobs that â¿¿natives donâ¿¿t want.â¿¿ Despite this widespread view, earlier studies have not found immigrants to be in riskier jobs than natives. This study combines individual-level data from the 2003â¿¿2005 American Community Survey on work-related injuries and fatalities to take a fresh look at whether foreign-born workers are employed in more dangerous jobs. The results indicate that immigrants are in fact more likely to work in risky jobs than U.S.-born workers, partly due to differences in average characteristics, such as immigrantsâ¿¿ lower English language ability and educational attainment.

Book Synopsis Costs of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses by : J. Paul Leigh
Download or read book Costs of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses written by J. Paul Leigh and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the debate over health care reform continues, costs have become a critical measure in the many plans and proposals to come before us. Knowing costs is important because it allows comparisons across such disparate health conditions as AIDS, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, and cancer. This book presents the results of a major study estimating the large and largely overlooked costs of occupational injury and illness--costs as large as those for cancer and over four times the costs of AIDS. The incidence and mortality of occupational injury and illness were assessed by reviewing data from national surveys and applied an attributable-risk-proportion method. Costs were assessed using the human capital method that decomposes costs into direct categories such as medical costs and insurance administration expenses, as well as indirect categories such as lost earnings and lost fringe benefits. The total is estimated to be $155 billion and is likely to be low as it does not include costs associated with pain and suffering or of home care provided by family members. Invaluable as an aid in the analysis of policy issues, Costs of Occupational Injuryand Illness will serve as a resource and reference for economists, policy analysts, public health researchers, insurance administrators, labor unions and labor lawyers, benefits managers, and environmental scientists, among others.

Book Synopsis A Prelude to the Welfare State by : Price V. Fishback
Download or read book A Prelude to the Welfare State written by Price V. Fishback and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workers' compensation was arguably the first widespread social insurance program in the United States and the most successful form of labor legislation to emerge from the early Progressive Movement. Adopted in most states between 1910 and 1920, workers' compensation laws have been paving seen as the way for social security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, and eventually the broad network of social welfare programs we have today. In this highly original and persuasive work, Price V. Fishback and Shawn Everett Kantor challenge widespread historical perceptions, arguing that, rather than being an early progressive victory, workers' compensation succeeded because all relevant parties—labor and management, insurance companies, lawyers, and legislators—benefited from the legislation. Thorough, rigorous, and convincing, A Prelude to the Welfare State: The Origins of Workers' Compensation is a major reappraisal of the causes and consequences of a movement that ultimately transformed the nature of social insurance and the American workplace.
