In this 30-minute recorded webinar held on April 17, 2025, at 2 PM ET, Dr. Vennela Thumula discussed findings from a recent WCRI FlashReport—Overview of Workers’ Compensation Claims Composition, which evaluated shifts in claim characteristics from 2017 to 2022.

The webinar addressed the following questions:

• How did the relative share of work injuries change by industry?
• Did the proportion of women/men among work-related injuries change?
• What was the most frequent injury type, and were there differences in injury distribution by age, gender, and industry?
• Did work-related injuries occur more frequently among younger or older workers?

The data for this study focus on 8.4 million non-COVID-19 claims from injury years 2017 through 2022 across 31 states, which represent about 80 percent of the workers' compensation benefits paid in the United States.

The recorded webinar is free for WCRI members and $25 for non-members.
