Location: Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
The Workers Compensation Research Institute (WCRI) has several openings for PUBLIC POLICY ANALYSTS and ECONOMISTS at the M.A. and Ph.D. levels in health economics, health policy, and public policy. WCRI researchers work on a wide range of empirical studies—for example, interstate variations in medical practice patterns, healthcare reimbursement, patient outcomes assessment, and public program evaluation. WCRI researchers have access to a unique database that includes over 30 million episodes of disability, and patient outcomes data from nearly 10,000 interviews. WCRI researchers publish in the WCRI peer-reviewed monograph series, and may also publish in academic journals. WCRI researchers present their findings at interactive briefings with stakeholders in state workers’ compensation systems, including with senior level members of the state agencies responsible for these systems. WCRI researchers also may present findings at academic conferences.
WCRI, a nonpartisan, member-supported nonprofit, is internationally recognized as the leading public policy research organization on workers’ compensation issues—important public programs that provide heath care and income benefits to injured workers. Each year, nearly 10 percent of employed workers sustain such injuries, and the costs to employers total about $60 billion. WCRI studies are routinely used by public officials, business, labor and the media to understand system performance and shape legislative and administrative changes. WCRI has the unmatched capability of monitoring the impact of workers’ compensation reforms not just on costs, but also on outcomes for injured workers.
Applicants should have demonstrated research skills, a strong interest in empirical research applied to public policy issues, the ability to explain technical research results to non-technical audiences, and excellent written and oral communication skills. WCRI offers competitive salary and benefits packages.
Applications should be submitted to Personnel, WCRI, 955 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, MA, 02139—or to personnel@wcrinet.org. Please submit
