Our professional staff can perform walk-through inspections to identify worksite hazards and recommend appropriate controls. We'll also perform an audit to determine the value of your current safety program and identify areas and methods for improvement - with the goal to increase overall compliance for your safety program. If a particular problem area or cause for concern is identified, we have the experience and resources to help facilitate a resolution.
Losses are often a symptom of a potential business problem. Our comprehensive review of your prior loss history will help identify trends or problem areas that can be addressed to prevent future accidents. As part of this review process, we can often recommend necessary and immediate corrective action, along with changes to policies and/or procedures. We will also advise on any required action(s) with respect to loss frequency vs. severity and unsafe acts vs. unsafe conditions.
Our expertise allows us to be an advisory resource for your in-house safety management personnel. With our broad range of resources, we can provide you with interpretation and practical application of most specific safety regulations to ensure your compliance. Additionally, we are available to provide on-site assistance during accident investigations and will assist you in resolving safety concerns. Our professional staff will also evaluate and coordinate the insurance company loss control process, working with carrier personnel to ensure you get timely and quality service.
After experiencing a rise in both the Experience Modifier Rates and the Incident and Severity Rates, our client called our office to ask for help. Although they realized the importance and benefits of establishing and managing a comprehensive safety program, they were not sold on the approach provided by their carrier. Over the next few months, I met with the client to develop an effective safety program. We were able to get buy-in from the field supervisors, set up accountabilities, and perform field safety audits on jobsites. Over time, they went from an annual average of 90 accidents down to 10 accidents, creating a dramatic reduction of their rates. Over the last few years they have maintained their “safety from the top down” program, thereby significantly reducing their insurance costs and increasing jobsite quality and production.”
