Abstract
Two years ago RIMS formed the Risk Management Roundtable to identify trends and issues affecting the field and to develop mechanisms to broadly disseminate views and concerns. In March 1990 Risk Management published the Roundtable's first article, "The 1990s: The Decade of Risk Management," developed by its "new risk team." Focusing on how the risk management function is performed and how it is perceived, particularly by senior management, the article generated ample discussion. In this issue the Roundtable's workers' compensation team explains how the system's original intent has been eroded. The team also offers advice on how various players, including workers, employers, doctors, lawyers, insurers, regulators and legislators, can help cure the system.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
