Countries throughout the world use estimates of the value of a statistical life (VSL) to monetize fatality risks in … estimates of the VSL. This article proposes that the best way to calculate a VSL for countries with insufficient or unreliable … data is to transfer a base VSL from the United States calculated using labor market estimates from Census of Fatal …

Meta-regression estimates of the value of a statistical life (VSL) controlling for publication selection bias often … yield bias-corrected estimates of VSL that are substantially below the mean VSL estimates.
