Essential guide to the Workmen's Compensation Act through key court decisions and labor guidance

This reference collects decisions, interpretations, and department guidance on the Workmen's Compensation Act from its start to July 1920. It frames how the act is applied, including constitutional considerations and practical rulings.

The book covers who is covered, how dependents are treated, how compensation is calculated, and the procedures for claims and hearings. It presents issues from wage bases to disability classifications, and from medical questions to third-party liability, all drawn from official opinions and case summaries.

How to determine actual wages for compensation, not averages.
How dependents and spouses are treated, including various dependency scenarios.
How disability is classified and the time limits for different benefit types.
The procedural steps for notices, hearings, settlements, and appeals.

Ideal for readers needing a solid, jurisdictional overview of early Workmen's Compensation law, including practitioners, researchers, and students.
