Wednesday, May 26, 2010 at 4:03PM The original intent of the workers' compensation system was that employers would cover medical care and lost wages for injured workers, and injured workers who were able would return to work upon recovery - there was no question of fault or claims of negligence. This balanced approach was called the “compensation bargain,” and was an efficient, effective system that did not necessitate attorneys or other outside parties, but rather worked simply between employers and employees.
This symposium seeks to examine the state of the current workers’ compensation system in North Carolina, to see if it is today the “compensation bargain” it was intended to be.
The seminar will be held August 1-2, 2010 in Winston-Salem, NC at the Embassy Suites Hotel. The cost is $129 before July 10, and $149 after. Register online today!

The annual Educational Charity Golf Outing for the Carolinas Chapter of RIMS will be May 12th. Last year, the Chapter gave $6,000 each to Appalachian and UNC Charlotte as well as $15,000 to the Spencer Educational Foundation with the proceeds of this golf tournament.
The purpose of the Annual Educational Charity Golf Outing is to raise funds for educational opportunities for Risk Management students. For this reason, we are filling sponsorship levels that include golf first (silver and above) and any remaining spots on a wait-list basis. If you would like to be added to the wait-list, please contact Jenny Jones. Individual registrations will be accepted for single players.
Again, thank you for your support. We'll see you on May 12th!
