Stop! You Could Be Hiring Your Next Workers Compensation Claim

Most companies have at least one horror story to tell about a Workers Compensation claim involving the back, shoulder or knee, where a pre-existing injury or weakness allegedly resulted in injury. Workers Compensation laws provide no protection or relief and these incidents are among the most expensive claims. These incidents often result in extended time off, surgery, rehabilitation and permanency settlements. The good news is that there are ways in which companies can avoid hiring their next Workers Compensation claims.
This seminar will help you develop and implement programs designed to legally identify and avoid hiring employees who are reasonably likely to aggravate a pre-existing condition on the job or be injured by the physical requirements of the job being offered.Topics to be discussed include:
Job Descriptions
ADA Compliance
Strength-Testing Protocols
