Don’t let workers’ compensation costs get the upper hand

Description

Abstract: When profit margins are uncomfortably tight, as they’ve been for many contractors in recent years, a sizable injury claim (or series of claims) can be devastating. This article takes a look at the key elements of workers’ compensation claim management and some ways contractors can keep these costs from getting the upper hand. It discusses the importance of “experience modification ratings” and offers ways to create a safer work environment.
