Book Description
Excerpt from Workingman's Insurance The publication of a work upon a subject in which the American public has as yet manifested but comparatively little interest, and concerning which the American literature consists of a single government report and one or two articles in periodicals, demands that something be said in explanation of its production. Though the question of workingmen's insurance is one that is but barely entering upon the stage of discussion in this country, in Europe it has assumed a position of great practical importance. To-day there is not a country on the Continent in which this question does not occupy the foremost place among measures actively considered for improving the condition of the laboring classes. In the modern movement for economic reform there is probably no one subject that offers so many features of paramount importance. As a social measure, it presents the most radical step to improve the condition of the laboring classes that has been undertaken since the rise of the modern industrial system.

Book Description
Excerpt from National Insurance In the National Insurance Act it has been our aim to provide as far as may be for every worker some kind of shelter against the slings and arrows of fortune. In doing so we have not, I think, laid any real additional burden upon the wealth and productive activity of the nation. We have substituted for tardy relief provision made in anticipation of need, no more costly, but infinitely more effective and more kindly in its operation than distress funds or the Poor Law. Some remain, for the moment, wholly or partly outside the operation of the scheme. We have not even yet been able to reach the lowest deeps, to grasp the utterly incapable, the loafer, or the wastrel, and set him, too, on the firm ground of self-respecting manhood fit to withstand all the shocks of adversity, but we may claim to have established barriers to prevent men falling into that abyss of human despair.

Book Description
Excerpt from Insurance Versus Poverty To those interested in the economic and social questions of the day Mr. Chiozza Money needs no introduction from me, and they will welcome the fact that he has devoted to the National Insurance Act his well-known powers of popular exposition of complicated subjects. The task that he has set himself and carried out so admirably in the following pages is one of very great importance. Nothing is more vital at the present time to the success of the Act than that it should be widely and thoroughly understood. Whether it be due to misconception or to misrepresentation or to the inherent difficulties of the subject, there is no doubt that a tangle of false conceptions has grown up about the National Insurance Scheme. If the tree that has been planted is to grow strong and bear good fruit this tangle must be cleared away. To one who plies the axe as vigorously and thoroughly as does Mr. Chiozza Money in this book is due the gratitude of all who have the success of the scheme at heart - all, that is, to whom the difficulties and suffering that millions of the workers of this country have to face are not a matter of indifference. Mr. Chiozza Money does not confine himself to a bare exposition of the scheme. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Workingmen's Insurance in Europe Realizing that the subject of insurance for workingmen was one of the great importance and that it was a pressing one in the United States, the Russell Sage Foundation early in 1908 secured the services of Mr. Lee K. Frankel to make a study of insurance in Europe. Mr. Frankel was specially qualified for the work by his wide experience in social work and a knowledge of the problems involved gained by acquaintance with families of working people. Soon after he began to plan the study he associated with him Mr. Miles M.Dawson, who was thoroughly expert on the technical side of insurance and well informed as to its social bearings. Information about workingmen's insurance is specially needed at this time. Eight states have appointed official commissions to study the subject and report plans for adoption. These commissions include employers, members of trade unions and social workers. A committee of the National Manufacturers Association, after much study, submitted an interesting report at the recent annual meeting of the Association. The committees resolution adopting the principle of compensation, in preference to the system of employers liability now prevalent, were passed unanimously, as well as a resolution urging a wider use of preventive machinery. Two conferences of members of state commissions and others interested have been held. The interest in insurance is evidently widespread and steadily growing. Yet there has been little experience in the United States on which to base positive recommendations; nor have we sufficient information, in easily accessible form, to enable us to decide how European precedents may be wisely followed under American conditions. This volume presents the results of a careful investigation, covering about six months, of the systems of insuring workingmen in operation in European countries.

Book Description
Excerpt from Accident and Health Insurance: A Series of Lectures Delivered Before the Insurance Institute of Hartford Workmen's compensation laws provide only for accidents which happen during the course of and arise out of the employ ment of the injured. Workingmen in common with all other persons are exposed to the non-occupational hazards of life, and there is no coverage under compensation policies for any such accidents. It will be seen, therefore, that the workmen's compensation system does not furnish full accident protection. The old workmen's collective policies were at one time written to cover either for accidents of occupation only, or to cover for the full twenty-four hours, so the latter furnished protection for both occupational and non - occupational accidents.
