The National Commission on State Workmen s Compensation Laws recommended insurance providers experience rate WC premiums to the maximum extent feasible. Historically, WC insurers have not used the accident experience of a small establishment to determine the establishment s price of WC insurance. Instead, they have combined the injury statistics for all workers within an industrial class and determined a so-called manual rate for WC coverage. The product of each worker s wage rate and the manual rate for his or her industrial class summed over all workers determines the total WC insurance premium for a small firm. As firm size increases insurers pay less attention to the average experience of the industrial class (the manual rate) and more attention to the safety record of the individual firm. Experience rating of insurance policies refers to the process of adjusting insurance prices... [Pg.132]

In a modern society, the investment in fire safety depends on the informed risk. Reliable risk must be based on complete statistics. An important motivator of the US government s interest to address the large losses due to fire in the early 1970s was articulated in the report of the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control (.America Burning [1]). It stated that the US annually sustained over 11 billion in lost... [Pg.2]

As of 2002, about 14 million people worldwide use cocaine. According to the ONDCP, the United States leads the world in cocaine abuse. While U.S. cocaine use has remained relatively stable over the last decade, the United Nations Commission on Narcotic Drugs reported in March 2000 that 34 countries out of 112 reported an increase in cocaine use from 1997 to 1998. In the European Union, the increase in cocaine use was mainly in the group of people aged 16 to 29 years. [Pg.103]

This issue has come under particularly close scrutiny following the Deepwater Horizon incident in the Gulf of Mexico. At the time of the incident, the safety regulation in place for the offshore oil and gas industry in the United States took the form of a prescriptive, standards-based regime. The report of the National Commission on the Deepwater Horizon Blowout includes a summary of the development of the safety case approach in the nuclear, chemicals, aviation, and offshore oil and gas industry (National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling 2011b, 69) and points out that the fatality rate in the offshore oil and gas industry in the United States is at least four times the fatality rate in European jurisdictions that have operated for several decades under safety case... [Pg.199]
