英文摘要 | Workers' compensation was the first form of social insurance to develop widely in the United States (US). It is designed to provide cash benefits and medical care when employees suffer work-related injuries, illnesses or a disability related to their work, and survivor benefits to the dependents of workers who deaths result from a work-related incident. In exchange for receiving benefits, workers who receive workers’ compensation are generally not allowed to bring a tort suit against their employers for damages of any kind. Thomason, Burton and Hyatt (1998) define disability as one possible consequence of an injury or disease. Most immediately a person afflicted by injury or disease suffers an impairment, which is an anatomic or functional abnormality or loss, such as the amputation of a limb, blindness, or lower back sprain. Impairments can result in functional limitations or limitations in physical or mental performance such as walking or climbing. |
