Reduce costs and liabilities associated with workers' compensation injuries.
Employers are often frustrated when a seemingly minor work injury evolves into a high dollar insurance cost that includes revolving payments for additional conditions, medical treatment, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures and medications. This topic is critical for anyone responsible for work injuries or advising clients on handling work injuries. This material will provide you with a detailed strategy on how to reduce costs and liability. You will learn how to proactively implement injury prevention measures. Our material will include a comprehensive guideline on how to handle injuries when they occur. We will go over examples of best practices of managing injuries by taking five common types (slip and falls, back, knees, shoulders, carpal tunnel).
