Workers' compensation is a form of insurance providing wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured in the course of employment in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee's right to sue his or her employer for the tort of negligence.

The trade-off between assured, limited coverage and lack of recourse outside the worker compensation system is known as "the compensation bargain".

One of the problems that the compensation bargain solved is the problem of employers becoming insolvent as a result of high damage awards.

The system of collective liability was created to prevent that, and thus to ensure security of compensation to the workers.

Individual immunity is the necessary corollary to collective liability.

A use tax is a type of tax levied in the United States by numerous state governments.

It is essentially the same as a sales tax but is applied not where a product or service was sold but where a merchant bought a product or service and then converted it for its own use, without having paid tax when it was initially purchased.

Use taxes are functionally equivalent to sales taxes.

They are typically levied upon the use, storage, enjoyment, or other consumption in the state of tangible personal property that has not been subjected to a sales tax.

"Stop to Start" is a 1973 song by Blue Magic from their eponymous debut album.

Nevada (Spanish for "snowy"; see ) is a state in the Western, Mountain West, and Southwestern regions of the United States of America.

Nevada is the 7th most extensive, the 34th most populous, and the 9th least densely populated of the 50 United States.

Nearly three-quarters of Nevada's people live in Clark County, which contains the Las Vegas–Paradise metropolitan area where three of the state's four largest incorporated cities are located.

Nevada's capital is Carson City.

Nevada is officially known as the "Silver State" because of the importance of silver to its history and economy.

It is also known as the "Battle Born State", because it achieved statehood during the Civil War (the words "Battle Born" also appear on the state flag); as the "Sage-brush State", for the native plant of the same name; and as the "Sage-hen State".

Nevada borders Oregon to the northwest, Idaho to the northeast, California to the west, Arizona to the southeast and Utah to the east.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is an agency of the United States Department of Labor.

Congress established the agency under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, which President Richard M.

Nixon signed into law on December 29, 1970.

OSHA's mission is to "assure safe and healthful working conditions for working men and women by setting and enforcing standards and by providing training, outreach, education and assistance".

The agency is also charged with enforcing a variety of whistleblower statutes and regulations.

OSHA is currently headed by Assistant Secretary of Labor David Michaels.

OSHA's workplace safety inspections have been shown to reduce injury rates and injury costs without adverse effects to employment, sales, credit ratings, or firm survival.
