How to Strengthen Your Claims Defensibility

Ellis Whittam has been the risk management partner to Towergate Insurance Brokers for almost a decade, together supporting employers’ proactive health and safety management and providing a buffer against the consequences of non-compliance. 

Drawing on our combined expertise, this webinar will equip employers with practical ways to proactively reduce workplace accidents and, if they do occur, satisfy the regulator and quash personal injury claims.

15 July 2021 | 11:00 - 11:45

Coronavirus has dominated the health and safety agenda since March 2020. However, while COVID-19 risk management continues, employers must not neglect the more traditional health and safety responsibilities, namely preventing accidents in the workplace.

While this responsibility never went away, accident reduction efforts may have taken a back seat of late. It’s likely, therefore, that things may have been missed, making you more exposed to civil claims and regulatory enforcement.

So, with this in mind, how can employers satisfy the regulator and, at the same time, strengthen their civil claims defensibility?

If you’re keen to shield your business against the cost of workplace accidents, join our free webinar to find out how.

The session will be co-presented by Ellis Whittam’s Director of Health & Safety Services, Nick Wilson, Towergate’s Risk Manager for the UK, Simon Broome, and Ellis Whittam’s Regional Business Director, Jonathan O’Byrne. With hardening markets and the propensity for claims to increase during any economic downturn, this webinar will explore the following: 

  • Accidents happen and they cost;
  • Legal duties – common law and statutory duty;
  • When things go wrong;
  • An insurer’s perspective;
  • What makes a good accident investigation; and
  • We like solutions!
