Abstract:

This study examined the relationship between the type of Workers' Compensation wage-replacement benefits—time limited and time unlimited—and rehabilitation outcome for 2077 persons who were identified as occupationally disabled in the state/federal rehabilitation program. Clients who received time limited Workers' Compensation benefits (N= 791) returned to work sooner and had a higher rehabilitation success rate than clients who received time unlimited benefits (N = 1286).

Abstract:

The Occupational Choice Strategy (OCS) is presented as a vocational counseling resource for use in rehabilitation agency and facility settings. Through a series of specific group activities, OCS enables rehabilitation clients to explore the relationship of personal assessment data and occupational information to potential vocational choices. OCS was designed in response both to the expressed needs of severely disabled individuals and to the cost and time constraints faced by rehabilitation counselors.

Abstract:

Within a model featuring demographic uncertainty, this paper studies a pension reform where public pension benefits are indexed to the total wage bill rather than to the average wage level. This implies a decline in the variability of contribution rates and an increase in the variability of replacement rates. While thus shifting some of the adjustment burden following demographic shocks to pensioners, the trade-off in risks is found to be fairly moderate.

Abstract This article presents procedures for calculating the value of non-wage compensation for members of private sector labor unions in the construction industry and cites examples using various collective bargaining agreements. Four major fringe benefit categories are analyzed: welfare, annuity, vacation, and pension funds. When calculating the loss to a private sector union worker it is necessary to obtain not only the relevant collective bargaining agreements but also information regarding both actual earnings and the number of hours worked. If both cannot be obtained, problems in valuin

Abstract:

Typical neoclassical life-cycle models predict that Social Security has a large and negative effect on private savings. We review this theoretical literature by constructing a model where individuals face uninsurable longevity risk and differ by wage earnings, while Social Security provides benefits as a life annuity with higher replacement rates for the poor. We use the model to generate numerical examples that confirm the standard result. Using several benefit and tax changes from the 1970s and 1980s as natural experiments, we investigate the empirical relationship between Social Security an

Abstract:

Ever since the U.S. federal–state system of unemployment insurance was founded in the 1930s, it has provided partial, temporary replacement of wages to eligible workers who lose jobs “through no fault of their own” (as determined by state-level regulations). Unemployment insurance is one of the largest social insurance programs in the United States, with benefits paid totaling about $34 billion in 2004. Economic theory can help us understand the challenges this complex program is likely to face over the next few years. We begin by summarizing the salient characteristics of the unemployment ins

In contrast to congenital hemophilia, AHA generally manifests as mucocutaneous bleeding, with poor correlation to antibody titer or residual FVIII activity.

Two defining phenotypes of SCD are chronic pain and endothelial dysfunction, both of which may be impacted by vitamin D (3-6).

AbstractDue to labor market reforms in Germany some years ago, the incentives to work changed. The paper analyzes the effects of the reforms on the reservation wages for specific groups. The replacement rates implied by the system of unemployment benefits and by the rules of means-tested social assistance are investigated in detail. In addition, the paper describes the development of the replacement rates in the recent decades. It turns out that the replacement rates increased in the period 1950 to 1975. Thereafter, the rates for the specific groups developed differently. However, in 2008 the

Abstract:

The high rates of nursing home deaths in the wake of COVID-19 have led to calls for their elimination and their replacement by home care. Based on years of research in Canada and abroad, this article argues that nursing homes are not just necessary. They provide significant benefits for those living in, working in, and visiting in them. In developing this argument, the article begins by setting out why long-term residential care is necessary before moving on to consider the benefits of such care, benefits that go beyond the clinical. It concludes by identifying factors that can make nursing ho

Abstract:

There is a long-standing debate in academic and policymaking circles about the normative merits and economic effects of a universal basic income (UBI). However, existing literature does not sufficiently address the question of which factors are associated with individual support for a UBI. While a large literature in political economy has focused on individual preferences for existing welfare state benefits, it has not analysed the case of a UBI. Using the eighth wave of the European Social Survey (ESS), this article seeks to remedy this gap by analysing individual support for a UBI in 21 Euro

Abstract:

To provide relief to the U.S. labor market following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act granted an extra $600 per week in UI benefit payments from late March through July 2020. This unprecedented increase in UI generosity raised concern that UI recipients would be largely unwilling to accept job offers, slowing the labor market recovery. Job acceptance decisions weigh the value of a job against remaining unemployed. A reservation level of benefit payments exists in this dynamic decision problem at which an individual is indifferent between accepting and refusing an offer. This r

Abstract:

Abstract Background Job loss is a well-established social determinant of health. Recent research has taken an ‘institutional turn’, asking whether unemployment support could buffer the health consequences of job loss. Here, we exploit a quasi-natural experiment based on the Fornero reforms in Italy, which increased wage replacement rates from 60% to 75% on 1 January 2013. Methods We employed difference-in-difference models using longitudinal data covering 202 incidents of job loss from the EU-Survey on Income and Living Conditions to quantify the impact of job loss on changes in self-reported

Abstract How do pension systems contribute to healthy ageing? It is widely speculated that more generous and stable pensions could promote better ageing outcomes, as well as could potentially result in lowered healthcare costs. Yet little is known about how alternative pension regimes shape health and healthcare expenditures in older persons. Here, using multi-level, cross-country data from the European Survey on Health, Ageing and Retirement (SHARE, n = 140,000) covering 27 nations, we test the hypotheses that more generous pensions, as well as systems with defined benefit (which are predicta

AbstractAutomation is a big concern in modern societies in view of its widespread impact on many socioeconomic issues including income, jobs, and productivity. While previous studies have concentrated on determining the effects on jobs and salaries, our aim is to understand how automation affects productivity, and how some policies, such as taxes on robots or universal basic income, moderate or aggravate those effects. To this end, we have designed an experiment where workers make productive effort decisions, and managers can choose between workers and robots to do these tasks. In our baseline

Background: While intentional weight loss in older adults with obesity yields clinically important health benefits there is a need to minimize the negative effects of weight loss on concomitant loss of muscle mass and strength. Data show wearing weighted vests during exercise improves lean mass and lower extremity strength, however the efficacy of wearing a weighted vest during a period of weight loss to mitigate muscle and strength loss is not known.
