SUCCESS STORY

He plans to use specific chapters to train the supervisors in his company. He sees it as a useful teaching tool as these supervisors become more involved in the claims process moving forward.


Those who purchase our book, 2011 Manage Your Workers Compensation Program - Reduce Costs 20-50%
learn new cost containment techniques, then go on to use the book as a teaching tool. They have real-life success!
