A large Honolulu-based hotel-operating company reviewed its workers compensation costs over the last 6 years. Data retrieved from the company's computerized data base is used to describe trends in injury incidence rate, average cost per claim, average medical cost per claim, and medical expenses as a percentage of total costs. Factors that might have influenced these parameters include company reorganization, employee training and safety programs, changes in the economy, company morale, aggressive case management, and the quality of the adjusting services hired. Cause-and-effect relationships, although suggested, cannot be proven. The data is presented, in this year of imminent workers compensation legislative reform, to increase the available factual data base on which rational and efficacious reform proposals can be developed.
一家总部位于檀香山的大型酒店运营公司回顾了过去6年的员工赔偿成本。从公司计算机数据库中检索的数据用于描述受伤发生率、每次索赔的平均成本、每次索赔的平均医疗成本以及医疗费用占总成本的百分比的趋势。可能影响这些参数的因素包括公司重组、员工培训和安全计划、经济变化、公司士气、积极的案例管理以及所聘请理赔服务的质量。尽管有因果关系的暗示，但无法得到证实。在今年即将进行员工赔偿立法改革之际，展示这些数据是为了增加可用的事实数据库，以便在此基础上制定合理有效的改革建议。
