National Underwriter is seeking entries for its third annual "Award For Excellence In Workers' Compensation Risk Management," sponsored by the National Council on Compensation Insurance.
NU will spotlight three organizations for their outstanding approach to workers' comp risk mitigation. Last year's winners were 2008 Champion ServiceMaster, along with Honorable Mentions Walt Disney Company and Select Staffing. (All three will share the secrets of their success during the Risk and Insurance Management Society's annual conference–Tuesday, April 21, from 2:15-to-3:45 p.m., in a session titled: "Excellence in Workers' Compensation Risk Management.")
The NU award program is run in cooperation with the Workers' Compensation Educational Conference (at which NU presents a National Trends program) and the Florida Workers' Compensation Institute (which manages the annual WCEC event).
o The risk management programs of all three winners will be individually profiled in the Aug. 17 edition of NU.
o A representative from the risk management department of each of the three winning firms will win a trip to Orlando to attend the WCEC from Aug. 16-19.
o The winners will discuss their approaches at a special "NU Roundtable" during the WCEC on Aug. 18, with highlights printed in our Oct. 19 edition.
Risk managers are invited to submit their own programs for consideration by June 15. Agents and brokers as well as insurers are welcome to nominate worthy candidates, although a third-party nomination is not required for a risk manager to enter.
