Linking Federal State Data Study

项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This study will use linked workers' compensation and Social Security Administration data to determine the impact of workplace injuries and illnesses on long-term earnings, income replacement from workers' compensation and federal disability insurance programs, withdrawal from the labor force, and the use of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits. We will also estimate how lost earnings, receipt of benefits, withdrawal from the labor market, and propensity to use SSDI/SSI benefits are affected by age, sex, body part, type of injury, and industry. The study will use data on all cases receiving workers' compensation income benefits in 5 states: California, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin. This study will improve our understanding of the economic impacts of occupational injuries and illnesses. It will provide better estimates of lost earnings than previously available and will provide them for a period stretching up to 14 years after the date of injury. It will also provide improved estimates of the degree to which losses are replaced, by providing information not only on workers' compensation benefits but also on the receipt of SSDI and SSI benefits. It will improve our understanding of the differential effects of injuries on the incomes of older compared to younger workers and of women compared to men. We will also estimate the economic impact of workplace injuries and illnesses by industry, by firm size, by part of body, and by nature of injury. We will use the industry categories designated by the National Occupational Research Agenda. These aspects of occupational injuries and illnesses are important of themselves, but they can also help in decisions about targeting prevention and research activities. Information about the receipt of SSDI and SSI benefits will also provide a measure of the population with the most disabling workplace injuries and illnesses, because these programs target workers expected to be unable to work for long periods.

描述(由申请人提供)：这项研究将使用关联的工人补偿和社会保障管理局的数据来确定工作场所伤害和疾病对长期收入的影响、工人补偿和联邦残疾保险计划的收入替代、退出劳动力大军以及社会保障残疾保险(SSDI)和补充安全收入(SSI)福利的使用。我们还将估计收入损失、领取福利、退出劳动力市场以及使用SSDI/SSI福利的倾向如何受到年龄、性别、身体部位、受伤类型和行业的影响。这项研究将使用加州、新墨西哥州、俄勒冈州、华盛顿州和威斯康星州5个州领取工人补偿收入福利的所有案例的数据。这项研究将提高我们对职业伤害和疾病的经济影响的理解。它将提供比以前更好的对损失收入的估计，并将提供长达受伤之日后14年的期间。它还将改进对弥补损失程度的估计，不仅提供关于工人补偿福利的信息，而且还提供关于SSDI和SSI福利收受情况的信息。这将使我们更好地理解伤害对年长工人和年轻工人以及妇女和男子收入的不同影响。我们还将按行业、公司规模、身体部位和伤害性质估计工作场所伤害和疾病的经济影响。我们将使用国家职业研究议程指定的行业类别。职业伤害和疾病的这些方面本身很重要，但它们也可以帮助做出有针对性的预防和研究活动的决策。有关领取SSDI和SSI福利的信息还将提供工作场所伤残和疾病最严重的人口的衡量标准，因为这些计划针对的是预计将长期无法工作的工人。
