The following slides show a promising picture for workers' comp as the economy continues to recover and as certain industries -- such as construction, manufacturing, oil and gas extraction and healthcare-- are poised for growth. At the same time, the industry will have to be prepared for potential disruptions such as those that will come as the workforce ages, such as might occur because of the Affordable Care Act and such as are facing companies because of declining returns on investments.
The slides were part of a presentation to the AMCOMP Conference for workers' compensation professionals on March 27, 2014. For the full presentation, click here.
