Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Sharon - Thank you for working on that article. The system has failed American workers. Agencies created under the guise of " worker protection " have failed miserably because of the " too close connection/nexus " to industry. Workers Compensation was created in this country to get benefits to workers without the need to sue the employer. It was created as a " win-win " situation. It could take years to sue your employer in " Tort. " Workers Comp was designed to get benefits to workers without the time and expense required to sue your employer. It is a sad day when injured workers have to work to uncover the self-dealing of industry, doctors and insurers to the detriment of workers. With exposure injuries, an x-ray does not tell the tale. Absent a broken bone, and responsible environmental blood, urine and untainted environmental site testing, an employee who is poisoned in the workplace falls into a purported 'safety net' that becomes invisible. Thank you again. snk1955@... a écrit : Dear Friends, I wanted to let you all know that there is a new paper titled " ACOEM in Service to Industry " that is published in the current edition of the International Journal of Occupational and Environmental Health. (IJOEH). I had the privilege to co-author this paper along with several, who are recognized worldwide as the consciences of occupational medicine. The link for the paper and a commentary regarding it are linked below. _http://www.ijoeh.com/pfds/IJOEH_1304_LaDou02.pdf_ (http://www.ijoeh.com/pfds/IJOEH_1304_LaDou02.pdf) _http://www.ijoeh.com/pfds/IJOEH_1304_Greenberg.pdf_ (http://www.ijoeh.com/pfds/IJOEH_1304_Greenberg.pdf) Sharon Kramer ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
