Abstract

Discloses that, in 1911, the USA enacted the first voluntary workers’ compensation plan, which has since been changed and enhances so that it resembles the present day workers’ compensation laws only in philosophy. Reports on the varying advantages and disadvantages but states that the pros outweigh the cons.
