Scope and Content Note

These are files of printed materials from 45 states and the District of Columbia. The Commission used the materials to assist in developing recommendations for legislative and regulatory changes in workers' compensation administration in New York State.

The series resulted from a letter sent by the Commission to other states requesting copies of current workers' compensation statutes and any related surveys, reports, or other written materials.

The series consists mainly of printed workers' compensation statutes, rules, regulations, and procedures as well as annual reports from state agencies having workers' compensation responsibilities. There are also a few policy statements and correspondence further explaining compensation administration in some states.
