Positive Review For Workers' Comp Cost Containment Book Well Earned

25 Jan, 2012 Bob Wilson

                               

It was good to see a LexisNexis review published a couple weeks back that gave rave reviews for Rebecca Shafer's book “Workers Compensation Management Program: Reduce Costs 20% to 50%”. Shafer is an industry stalwart and one of the best known cost containment experts around. Additionally, she is a prolific writer (a veritable content machine), and tremendous supporter of this website.

Lexis reviewer Karen Yotis provides an in depth review of Shafer's book, and spares no details in the process. Bottom line – it is a must have publication for employers navigating the maze of workers' compensation, and Yotis' review definitely does it justice.

Don't take my word for it. The review provides excellent detail, and you can read it here. Of course, the book itself is quite worthwhile to have. You can learn more about that here.
