Who Are WorkNest?

WorkNest has been the risk management partner to Towergate Insurance Brokers for almost a decade. Together, we help organisations take a proactive approach to health and safety management, supporting Towergate’s insurance proposition as well as providing a buffer against the consequences of non-compliance, for better peace of mind.

This event will provide a unique insight into WorkNest (Formerly Ellis Whittam) and the products and services available. As well as equipping employers with practical ways to proactively reduce workplace accidents, keeping employee and customers safe, and, if accidents do occur, what to do to satisfy the regulator and quash personal injury claims.

18 October - 14:00

The coronavirus pandemic has dominated the health and safety agenda since March 2020. Although COVID-19 risk management continues, employers must now go back to basics and revisit their fundamental 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?

Join us for our free London lunch event hosted at Tenter House to find out.

Co-presented by WorkNest’s Director of Health & Safety, Nick Wilson, and Regional Business Director, Peter Murphy, this enlightening session 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!

With hardening markets and the propensity for claims to increase during any economic downturn, this informative session is an opportunity to receive timely, practical advice from industry experts on protecting your business against the cost of workplace accidents and health and safety breaches.

This event is free to attend and places will be issues on a first come, first served basis. To avoid disappointment register, simply complete the form opposite.
