Hi Steve,
Great project! I look forward to hearing the results!
- A & B
- 100%
- 40%, mainly because either no wage loss or the person is older
- date of report, so I have to change it periodically
- I base it on current age and likely retirement age as well as severity of injury and type of job, then arbitrarily and not very scientifically, reduce it

Subject: LE & WLE calculation date survey
I'm doing a study of life expectancy (LE) and worklife expectancy (WLE) calculation dates, and would very much appreciate the chance to see what my fellow IARP Forensic Section colleagues are doing in this regard... In order not to clog the Listserv, I would ask that you forward response/s directly to me. Naturally, I will keep all responses completely confidential. Thanks much.
