Your return on investment
It has been estimated that for every day a worker earning $100 per day spends on workers’ compensation claim that the financial impact on the employer is between $500 and $700**.  This is equally true for legitimate and fraudulent claims alike meaning that an investment in training focused on managing claim fraud will pay for itself if only two or three days of time loss due to fraud are saved each year.
