It is worthwhile to note that there are two significant predictors for wokers comp incidence and prognosis:
1. Depression
2. Relationship with supervisor
So that tells me that we have a lot of depressed TSA employees who hate their supervisors. No surprise.
There would be a lot fewer claims if they were opening and inspecting fewer bags.
Perhaps some training on how to lift instead of how to harass would reduce claims as well.
