Abstract:
This paper examines the gaps in chief executive officer (CEO) and worker compensation by exploring the vital data of 10 corporations as uncovered in a study by NerdWallet.com on the differences in hourly compensation between CEOs and average hourly workers or employees. The author examines the problem of excessive compensation for CEOs as a major organizational challenge that affects perceptions of fairness by stakeholders, especially employees or workers whose contributions to organizational performance and success are not being adequately rewarded, but instead transferred to CEOs and other executives as companies increase revenues and profits through the sweat and toil of ordinary workers. The author argues that executive compensation should be linked to organizational results and performance, and examines the standards and considerations for determining fair wage and compensation, and from examining vital data on CEO compensation and average worker compensation, explores the implications for organizational change, including consideration of quality work life (QWL) investments. Several recommendations are made for meeting the challenge of excessive CEO compensation to include the following: (1) developing new approaches or methods of compensation that take worker rewards into consideration; (2) limiting CEO or executive compensation relative to established multiple of the average worker’s wage; (3) intervention and petition from governmental and administrative agencies including workers’ rights organizations for change; and (4) more compassionate leadership and management by organizational CEO and executives with increased concern for workers’ well-being.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Sustaining sufficient income in retirement becomes particularly challenging for injured workers supported during their working years by workers’ compensation benefits. This study examined the income security of injured workers aged 65 and older in Ontario (Canada’s largest province) who had spent five years or more on workers’ compensation benefits. Methods Our 2019-2022 multi-method study involved: 1) scanning Canadian workers’ compensation policies on retirement age benefits; 2) reviewing Ontario parliament transcripts on political debates surrounding the injured worker pension benefit cuts; 3) in-depth interviews on workers’; experiences of workers’ compensation retirement benefits. Results Most Canadian workers’ compensation boards made significant cuts to retirement benefits, substantially reducing retired injured worker incomes. Monthly pension payments had shifted to lump-sum payouts, which disrupted workers’ access to social security supports. The political debates about cuts to injured worker retirement pensions focused mostly on affordability and concepts of worker deservingness. Interviews with injured workers revealed deep poverty of older injured workers. Discussion Workers’ compensation is intended to compensate for income losses related to work-related ill-health and injury, including losses to contributions to the Canadian pension retirement plan, but this is no longer provided in Canada and workers face related economic hardship. Conclusion Our study is one of the first to examine workers’ compensation benefits for injured workers in retirement. It draws attention to the problem of poverty among injured workers in their retirement years and raises questions about politics, reduced retirement benefits and adequacy of the Canadian social security net.

Abstract:
Objective The aim of this scoping review was to map the literature on the lived experiences of injured workers in Australia in order to better understand the factors that inhibit the transition back to work and improved health. The ultimate aim of the study was to identify areas for further research into workers’ compensation systems and practices that are associated with improved occupational rehabilitation outcomes. Methods PubMed, ProQuest, Embase and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) were searched for eligible articles published in English in peer-reviewed journals from 2001 to 2017. Narrative data synthesis was used to analyse the data collected from included articles. Results Twelve articles examining injured workers’ experiences within Australian workers’ compensation systems were identified. Injured workers reported similar experiences across states and territories in Australia. Four common themes and three subthemes were noted, namely: (1) relationships and interactions; (2) injured workers’ perceptions (subthemes: mental health effects, social effects and financial effects); (3) the workers’ compensation process; and (4) independent medical evaluations. Conclusions There are common difficulties that injured workers experience within Australian workers’ compensation systems that are reported to impede rehabilitation and return to work. A less harmful, more cooperative approach to worker rehabilitation and compensation is needed. What is known about the topic? Different workers’ compensation systems exist throughout Australia. Little is known about injured workers’ perceptions of their experiences within these systems in Australia and whether these experiences are similar or different across systems. What does this paper add? This scoping review synthesises available evidence showing that injured workers report negative experiences of workers’ compensation systems, and that this experience is similar across the different systems. This review also identified a clear need for future research on workers’ compensation systems in order to promote evidence-based approaches to best support the occupational rehabilitation of injured workers. What are the implications for practitioners? Evidence suggests a more holistic, biopsychosocial approach is required by practitioners when facilitating an injured worker’s recovery and return to work. This approach is also vital when considering legislative reforms, such as workers’ compensation systems, processes and practices.

Abstract:
Mestrado em Actuarial Science
O presente trabalho apresenta uma análise às melhores estimativas de acidentes de trabalho sob o regime de Solvência II que entrou em vigor a 1 de janeiro de 2016, apresentando uma modelização das responsabilidades com base na legislação existente, principalmente a Lei n.º 98/2009. No âmbito de Solvência II, as melhores estimativas das responsabilidades de seguros não vida são calculadas separadamente em provisão para sinistros (respeitantes a sinistros ocorridos) e provisão para prémios (relativamente a sinistros futuros que são cobertos pelas responsabilidades abrangidas pelos limites dos contratos existentes). No que diz respeito a seguros vida, as melhores estimativas devem ser calculadas separadamente para cada apólice. As responsabilidades de acidentes de trabalho apresentam a particularidade de serem compostas por diferentes naturezas, o que proporciona na sua modelização a aplicação de metodologias atuariais não-vida e vida. Em Solvência II, estas responsabilidades são divididas em duas classes de negócio: acidentes de trabalho utilizando bases técnicas não semelhante a técnicas de vida (NSTV) e rendas decorrentes de contratos de seguro de natureza não vida e relacionados com responsabilidades de seguro de acidentes e doença utilizando bases técnicas semelhantes a técnicas de vida (STV). A abordagem ao tema foi realizada de forma separada tendo em consideração a desagregação da melhor estimativa em Solvência II, e as diferentes responsabilidades de acidentes de trabalho: não semelhantes e semelhantes a técnicas de vida. Devido à literatura existente para provisionamento ser bastante diversificada, o trabalho foi desenvolvido com foco nas metodologias que mais frequentemente são aplicadas no mercado segurador.
This work presents an analysis to the Workers' Compensation best estimate under the Solvency II regime that came into force in January 1st 2016, modelling the liabilities based on the applicable legislation, mainly the Law 98/2009. Within the scope of Solvency II, the best estimate of non-life liabilities are calculated separately under claims provision (concerning claims that have already happened) and premium provision (concerning future claims that are covered by the existing contractual obligations). The best estimate of life liabilities should be calculated separately for each policy. Workers' Compensation presents the particularity of being composed of different natured liabilities, which provides in its modeling the application of life and non-life actuarial methodologies. Under Solvency II, these liabilities are split into two lines of business: Workers' Compensation insurance using non similar to life techniques (NSLT) and annuities stemming from non-life insurance contracts and relating to health insurance obligations using similar to life techniques (SLT). The approach to this report was conducted separately considering the breakdown of the best estimate under Solvency II and the Workers' Compensation liabilities divided into non similar and similar to life techniques. Due to the diversification of existing literature, this work has been developed focusing on the methodologies that are most frequently applied in the insurance market.

Abstract:
Mestrado em Ciências Actuariais
O ramo Acidentes de Trabalho é um dos ramos não Vida mais interessantes de estudar em Portugal devido essencialmente à gestão das pensões que ao contrário do que é comum na maioria dos países transita para a responsabilidade da área Vida. O programa Solvência II introduz novas exigências às empresas seguradoras a fim de conferir maior proteção aos consumidores. As empresas seguradoras podem optar por desenvolver modelos internos ou adotar o modelo padrão definido pelos reguladores europeus. O nosso objetivo neste trabalho foi construir um modelo interno para o ramo Acidentes de Trabalho no qual abrangemos todas as especificidades deste ramo. Numa parte, o modelo é baseado no modelo de Merz e Wuthrich (M & W) desenvolvido especificamente para o Solvência II. O modelo M & W tem como objetivo medir possíveis flutuações ao nível das reservas entre duas previsões sucessivas realizadas. Noutra parte, o modelo é baseado no estudo de longevidade sendo este um dos riscos mais importantes discutidos hoje em dia e com elevado impacto sobre a gestão das pensões e no provisionamento realizado ao nível dos encargos de assistência vitalícia. Um modelo interno global necessita de modelar eficientemente a consequência de acidentes ocorridos e projetar a consequência de acidentes ainda não ocorridos. As seguradoras devem precaver o risco dos prémios cobrados se tornarem insuficientes para cobrir todas as obrigações assumidas. Recorremos ao uso extensivo de simulação para estimar alguns cenários extremos.
Workers Compensation is one of the most interesting Property and Casualty branches to study in Portugal. Largely influenced by Annuities management that unlike what is common in most countries is classified as Life and Savings risk. Solvency II introduces new requirements that should be fulfilled by companies in order to protect consumers. Companies can opt to develop internal models or to adopt the standard model defined by European regulators. Our goal is to build an internal model for Workers Compensation. The model must cover all specificities of this branch. In one part, the model is based on the Merz and Wüthrich (M&W) model developed for Solvency II purposes. The M&W model aims to measure possible reserves fluctuations between two successive predictions for the total ultimate claim. In the second part, the model is based on longevity study. Longevity is one of the most important risks discussed nowadays and this has large impact on annuities management and lifetime assistance. A global internal model needs not only to model the consequence of occurred accidents but also to project the ones which have not occurred yet. Companies must prevent the risk of premiums being insufficient to cover all assumed liabilities. Extensive use of simulation is made to estimate some extreme scenarios.

Abstract:
Workers? compensation insurance (WCI) is the highest cost to an employer following accidents. It is needed to predict the benefits value without taking into account the past records of an employee, which is not readily available in most cases. Employment and workers? compensation data were acquired from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the National Academy of Social Insurance, respectively. The statistical model was developed with SAS using multiple regression and the process was simplified using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The model predicted future values of workers compensation given a known number of covered workers for all U.S. states. The model is statistically proven to be fit for all states. The states were compared on the basis of percentage deviation from the actual values. By using this model, insurance companies and policymakers can have better understanding of workers? compensation trend and they can quotes premiums and develop policies more accurately.

No nosso relatório apresentamos diferentes interpretações da teoria de credibilidade de Bühlmann que foram aplicadas na análise da carteira de seguros de trabalho de uma seguradora portuguesa. Começamos pela apresentação e implementação dos modelos clássicos de Bühlmann-Straub e Jewell, posteriormente debruçamo-nos sobre a mais recente leitura destes modelos enquanto modelos lineares mistos. Por fim, apresentamos duas abordagens que sugerem como a credibilidade de Bühlmann poderá aperfeiçoar o desempenho dos modelos lineares generalizados.
In our report, several interpretations of Bühlmann credibility are applied in the workers compensation portfolio of a portuguese insurance company. We begin with classical implementations of Bühlmann-Straub and Jewell models, and then we display a more recent reading of those models as Linear Mixed Models. We end presenting two approaches that show how Bühlmann credibility can enhance the performance of generalized linear models.

Mestrado em Actuarial Science
Este trabalho apresenta uma análise de como o novo regime contabilístico IFRS17 irá afectar o cálculo das Provisões Técnicas e do desempenho para a linha de seguros de compensação dos trabalhadores, com particular incidência nas questões de implementação prática. Serão também fornecidas comparações com o SII. Uma característica chave que distingue este LoB em Solvência II é que as responsabilidades são divididas entre técnicas similares vida (SLT) e técnicas similares não vida (NSLT), dependendo da natureza do sinistro específico. Isto significa que estas duas técnicas terão de ser analisadas com as metodologias apropriadas que separam a Vida do Mundo Não Vida. este documento, o foco principal é dado às técnicas SLT, e, neste contexto, serão analisados os novos conceitos requeridos pela IFRS17. Para concluir, estas noções não serão deixadas apenas a um nível teórico, mas serão acompanhadas por um trabalho prático que mostra os desafios da implementação dos conceitos da IFRS 17 num modelo específico de Solvência II e as soluções que foram implementadas para alcançar um justo equilíbrio entre os conceitos teóricos e a sua implementação efectiva.
This work presents an analysis of how the new accounting regime IFRS17 will affect the calculation of Technical Provisions and performance for the Workers' Compensation Insurance line of business with a particular focus on the practical implementation issues. Comparisons with SII will be also provided. A key feature that distinguishes this particular LoB in Solvency II is that liabilities are split between similar life techniques (SLT) and non-similar life techniques (NSLT) depending of the nature of the specific claim. This means that these two techniques will have to be analysed with the appropriate methodologies that separates the Life from the Non-life world. In this paper the main focus is given to SLT techniques, and, in this contest, the new IFRS17 required concepts will be analysed. To conclude, this notions will not be left only on a theoretical level but will be joined by a practical work that shows the challenges of implementing IFRS 17 concepts in one specific Solvency II model and the solutions that were implemented to achieve a fair balance between the theoretical concepts and the actual implementation of them.

Abstract:
Abstract The greenhouse industry is a multibillion-dollar sector of U.S. agricultural production. Greenhouse workers often experience hazardous working conditions placing them at risk for injury. These injuries include but are not limited to mechanized operations causing machine and tool related injuries, on-site shipping and loading practices placing excessive strain on a worker’s body, working from height leading to slips and falls, and a strenuous indoor working environment exceeding workers’ physical capabilities. This project focused on identifying greenhouse worker injury trends using workers’ compensation data from the Midwest region and observing and interviewing workers at one specific greenhouse company host site. Physical exertion, lifting and handling, and falls were all high value workers’ compensation problems for Midwestern regional greenhouses. A new piece of equipment and process was designed to prevent worker injury identified within the host site. The baseline risk from the original equipment was compared to the new equipment using a newly proposed indicator of social sustainability based on a validated safety professional tool, the risk assessment matrix (RAM), was utilized. The RAM found a reduction in risk between the original and new equipment. The new equipment design and process exhibited improvement in six out of the eleven hazards identified in the RAM. These improvements addressed lifting and handling concerns. Combining workers’ compensation data analysis, on-site observation, and worker interviews together was an effective method to rapidly deploy and design safer and thus more socially sustainable equipment for greenhouse workers.

Abstract:
Starting from the mid-1970s, there has been a significant disbalance in labor markets in almost all world economies. The postulates of classical economics that the causality between labor productivity and workers' compensation is positive, and that the increase in marginal labor productivity is followed by a directly proportional increase in workers' compensation, no longer stand on solid foundations. In the last few decades, there has been a significant distortion of the functional distribution of income, especially between labor and capital. The widely held thesis that "a rising tide will lift all boats," implying that increased labor productivity will be equally distributed among workers, is becoming less relevant. The world, especially EU economies notice a significant disruption in the relationship between productivity growth and labor compensation. In the paper, an attempt is made to analyze the state of the labor market in the Republic of North Macedonia, through the prism of productivity and labor compensation. Given the fact that there are significant differences in the degree of efficiency and productivity in individual sectors, this analysis focuses on the relationship between the distribution of productivity and labor compensation in different industries. Based on the results of the study, the Republic of North Macedonia exhibits the phenomenon of Reverse Decoupling, where the trend of labor productivity lags behind the trend of workers' compensation. In contrast, productivity and workers' compensation show significant differences by different sectors.

Abstract:
Blocked by novel judicial defenses that deprived them of the common law remedies that the general public enjoyed, workers agitated for decades until growing political pressure led employers and the courts to accept worker’s compensation in America at the beginning of the twentieth century. Two remarkable side-effects of the Worker’s Compensation Acts were the ignition of the safety movement and the reformulation of tort law in regards to technological harms. These changes came just as some of the dangers formerly reserved for industrial workers began to be visited upon consumers in the form of new, complex, and mass-produced products. Safety-minded engineers joined together to reassess the role of technology in accident-related injury, creating a new framework for design that shed old deterministic assumptions about operator behavior. Likewise, the legal community re-imagined tort law in view of a broad no-fault worker’s compensation system. The legal formulation culminated in a strict products liability regime in 1964, and a sea change in the social status of technology itself. But these two revolutionary conceptions, both oriented toward the protection of the user, are not equal: modern legal disputes serve to expose the disconnect between the engineering and legal frameworks of safe design.
