Workplace injuries are declining, but costs are climbing, Travelers report finds

This story was originally published on HR Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily HR Dive newsletter. Due in part to changing workforce demographics, costs associated with workplace injuries are climbing, even while the number of injuries continues to decline, according to a June 3 report from workers' compensation insurer Travelers. The report compared workers compensation data from the five years leading up to the Covid pandemic, 2015 to 2019, with data from the five years since, 2020 to 2024. Three cost-related trends emerged: Increasing retirement ages, ongoing employee turnover and longer injury recovery times, Rich Ives, Travelers senior VP of business insurance claims, said in a press release. To help prevent workplace injuries and manage employee safety, businesses should focus on three key areas: onboarding and training to establish safe work practices; creating a culture of safety by supporting and engaging employees; and managing workplace accidents and injuries, Travelers said. One of the factors affecting workplace injuries has been a continuous job churn over the past five years, Travelers noted. This has created a steady stream of new employees — a group considered among the most vulnerable to injury, the company said. In particular, its research found workplace injuries during a worker's first year on the job comprised 36% of all workplace injuries over the past five years, up from the 34% recorded during the period between 2015 and 2019. There's also been a slight increase in claims by employees aged 50 and older, the study found. 'This trend is significant because older employees — while typically injured less frequently than their younger counterparts — tend to require longer recovery times and have more costly claims,' Travelers said. Across the board, from 2020 to 2024, employees missed an average of 80 workdays per injury, an increase of more than seven days when compared with the previous five-year period, according to Travelers' analysis of more than 2.6 million claims submitted over the past decade. Employers can act proactively to reduce injury risk with onboarding programs that educate employees on appropriate safety procedures and safeguards, such as where emergency exits or eye wash stations are located, Travelers explained in an earlier report. Orientation — as well as training when roles change or for employees returning to work from injuries — should also be skills-based, meaning that it provides actual hands-on training on how to safely perform a task, the report said. Travelers added that employers should include in their safety programs awareness-based training, which emphasizes general safety policies, hazard recognition and how to report an injury or unsafe condition. The combined focus on skills- and awareness-based training 'gives employees tactical knowledge and cultural awareness of why safe practices are important,' Travelers said. Additionally, employers should have policies and employee training in place on how to handle customer hostility — which has been on the rise in recent years, according to a 2022 Axonify report — as well as workplace harassment, particularly harassment outside categories protected by civil rights laws such as inappropriate boundary violations, experts previously told HR Dive. Such policies may include protocols for mitigating different levels of customer-facing and internal harassment, from annoying to physically dangerous. Another factor to keep in mind is that employees may face different risks depending, for example, on characteristics such as gender or physical limitations, the National Safety Council said in a 2024 report. Workplace injury prevention programs that incorporate principles of diversity and inclusion can reduce these risks and create a more effective culture of safety, the report found. For instance, personal protective equipment traditionally has been designed to fit the average White male, NSC said. But this can result in women and nonbinary and transgender employees having incorrectly sized PPE, which can increase injuries. NSC's report also noted that Black and Hispanic workers expressed the most unease about reporting unsafe working conditions and recommended that employers ensure all workers feel comfortable reporting safety issues as part of their priorities around inclusion.

The World's Largest Meatpacker Jumps On First Day Of NYSE Trading

In the first hours since the world's largest meatpacker began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday under the ticker JBS, the stock had a slow start before ending the day up nearly 5%. The addition of American investors has been expected to help the Brazilian conglomerate with $77 billion in 2024 revenue from processing and selling beef, pork, chicken and lamb to more than 100 countries. During the first day of trading, shares rose around 3% before briefly falling past where the stock opened at $13.65 per share at around 2:30 p.m eastern. As of the close of markets, the stock was back up and hit a high $14.29, or around 5% up. The market capitalization of JBS was more than $31 billion. And the billionaire sons of the founder, who guided the expansion of JBS beyond Brazil—and went to jail seven years ago after its American acquisition spree got ensnared in a massive corruption scandal involving 1,800 politicians in in their homeland—are now richer for it. As JBS stock rose, the net worths of Joesley and Wesley Batista increased an estimated $200 million each. The brothers, who are the top shareholders in the company and serve as board directors, are now worth $4.8 billion each. Together, through family holding companies, they own nearly 50% of JBS. Billionaires Wesley (left) and Joesley Batista are the top shareholders of JBS, the world's largest meatpacker, which began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday. Joesley and Wesley Batista, 53 and 52 respectively, were personally charged with foreign corruption in the U.S. as well as insider trading allegations in Brazil (related to the timing of the news of their bribery scheme) that saw them briefly jailed in Brazil for about six months from 2017 to 2018. In all, the Batistas and one of their holding companies agreed to more than three dozen incidents of bribery in Brazil, according to their 2017 cooperation agreements with the Brazilian government. And the U.S. Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission found evidence of some $150 million in kickback when the Batistas and their holding company, J&F Investimentos, pled guilty to U.S. foreign corruption charges in 2020. J&F paid a $128 million criminal fine as part of a settlement with the Department of Justice. J&F also paid $27 million over foreign corruption charges with the SEC. At the same time, the Batista brothers, who are Brazilian citizens, settled a civil penalty with the SEC and paid $550,000 each. Until 2025, there had been a bipartisan effort to stop the U.S. listing on the NYSE. Last year, 15 senators—including Republicans Josh Hawley of Missouri and John Barrasso of Wyoming as well as Democrats Cory Booker of New Jersey, Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts—denounced a potential IPO. Years prior, former Florida Senator Marco Rubio, now Secretary of State, was one of JBS' loudest critics and twice requested a broad investigation by the Treasury Department into the Batistas and their assets. The long-delayed SEC approval for JBS' dual-listing came just two days after the Trump Administration's new SEC chairman was sworn into office. The SEC approval also came two days after it was revealed in a public filing with the federal election commission that the largest donor to the Trump Inaugural Committee was the JBS subsidiary, chicken processor Pilgrim's Pride. The $5 million donation to Trump's Inauguration was five times larger than the checks given by Amazon, Meta, Uber, Nvidia and Microsoft, which each gave $1 million. A JBS spokesperson has denied any link in the timing of the donation. The Trump Administration did not return request for comment. Allowing JBS to trade in the U.S. is likely bad news for America's homegrown—and largest overall—meatpacker, Tyson. With a market capitalization of just under $20 billion, Tyson is slightly bigger than JBS in beef and chicken, but its stock price has been struggling, down 8%, in the past three months. Tyson has historically traded at around double the multiple of JBS, but analysts expect the addition of JBS to an American stock exchange to change that, which means JBS will have more buying power, and the competition is on. 'Food is a national security issue,' says Carlos Laboy, the lead analyst on JBS at HSBC. 'It benefits the United States to have the largest protein company in the world not only operated in the U.S. but listed in the U.S. and with the oversight of U.S. regulators. The alternative scenarios are not favorable to the U.S.'
