Developing a loss control plan

When applying for insurance, a question on the application asks if you have a formal safety or loss control plan. Many of you can probably check “yes” to this question.

If you don’t have a plan and don’t know where to start, a checklist from The Hartford can help. It focuses on nine key areas of a good loss-control program:

  1. Managerial direction.
  2. Basic operations.
  3. Employee selection and training.
  4. Workplace accidents and losses.
  5. Communication.
  6. Loss control organization.
  7. Materials.
  8. Equipment.
  9. Results/benefits.

For a free copy of the detailed checklist to develop your own formal loss control program, call the program administrator for GlassInsure, NGA’s sponsored insurance program, at 800/640-7601.
