Should Rehabilitation Be Mandatory in Workers' Compensation Programs
When workers' compensation and public vocational rehabilitation programs began in the first decades of this century they were closely allied but now have drifted apart. In an effort to bring the benefits of rehabilitation to work-injured persons, some state workers' compensation programs, beginning with California in 1975, mandated the referral of workers to rehabilitation, but not necessarily to the public program. It has proven most difficult t…

The Survival of Workers' Compensation
Workers' compensation began in the progressive era as a compromise between management and labor. During the New Deal and the Second World War, the program met with challenges severe enough to bring its very existence into question. Despite these difficulties, workers' compensation has survived to the point where it now flourishes. The history of the program teaches lessons about the adaptability of old social programs to modern conditions

Disability and Rehabilitation Policy: Is Paternalistic Neglect Really Benign
Occupational Safety and Health
Work accidents became a matter of societal concern in the Progressive era of Woodrow Wilson. When other contingencies of modern life were brought under social security in the New Deal reforms of the 1930s, work accident legislation remained separate. One possible reason was that work accidents can be controlled within industrial and chance limits. But control does not imply elimination since a risk-free environment would paralyze production. In s…

The State Mediator: Background, Self-Image, and Attitudes
To describe the social background, employment conditions, and attitudes of state mediators toward labor-management questions is the principal purpose of this article. Placing the analysis of their survey of state mediators into its historical and institutional context, the authors find that state mediators tend to favor voluntary mediation when requested by parties who have reached an impasse rather than early preventive mediation. They attribute…

The Economics of Trade Union Organization and Administration
Analysis of the union resembles the examination of the elephant by the blind men: it reveals a creature of diverse characteristics. The union may be regarded as, among other things, a political organization, a social fraternity, a beneficial society, a pressure group, or a bargaining agency. In this article, the union is appraised in yet another role--that of a business organization which must equate its expenditures with its income. Although the…
