How Better Health and Safety Practices Can Improve Claims Defensibility
WorkNest 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.
26 July at 2.00 pm
Coronavirus dominated the health and safety agenda from March 2020 until very recently. However, while COVID-19 risk management remains important, employers must ensure that they have not neglected the more traditional health and safety responsibilities, namely preventing accidents in the workplace, and that they have the correct procedures in place to limit risk to their staff and visitors.
While this responsibility never went away, accident reduction efforts may have somewhat unavoidably taken a back seat. 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 in collaboration with our partners at insurance giants Towergate to find out how.
The 45-minute session will be co-presented by WorkNest’s Health & Safety Consultant, Phil Tate, and Towergate’s Risk Manager for the UK, Simon Broome. 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!
