Abstract
In 1911, workmen's compensation originated in Ohio and it was called the "Employer's Liability Act" with the employers contributing 90% and the employees contributing 10%. The purpose of the act was to provide compensation for loss resulting from disability or death of a workman from industrial accidents or disease without regard to negligence and fault.
