Whether you are insured or self-insured, Loss Control Management is a way for you to control costs, effectively manage claims and enhance your work environment to promote productivity, growth and profitability. Our Loss Control Management service defines areas of potential loss before they occur or prevents further loss from accidents that have occurred in the past.

When it comes to risk, liability should ideally rest with whichever party has the most control over the sources of potential liability. Risk transfer, when done effectively, allocates risk equitably, placing responsibility for risk on designated parties consistent with their ability to control and insure against that risk. Risk transfer is a risk management and control strategy that involves the contractual shifting of a pure risk from one party to another. Examples of risk transfer include the purchase of an insurance policy, by which a specified risk of loss is passed from the Policyholder to the Insurer. Other examples include hold-harmless clauses, contractual requirements to provide insurance coverage for another party's benefit and reinsurance.
