  Our Client’s Dilemma
The client was canceled by their insurance carrier because their loss ratio became too high. While the client had been accustomed to buying coverage based on price, they realized they needed a risk management consultant who could make them more appealing to insurance carriers and protect their insurability.

RJF’s Near-Term Solutions
RJF’s Loss Control department conducted a detailed claims analysis on their losses. The client had never seen their claims nor had them analyzed. RJF used the results of the survey to implement new safety training and injury reduction programs. In addition, appropriate insurance coverage was brokered for the client with no increase in premium. RJF also improved communication and awareness within the company’s appointed safety staff, increasing its effectiveness.

Other client benefits since partnering with RJF include:
  • Created AWAIR Program to reduce accidents and injuries
  • Developed light duty/return to work policy to get injured employees back to work quickly
  • Worked with client to create Emergency Action Plan
  • Developed custom computerized employee training program
Within two years after partnering with their client, RJF managed to:
  • Reduce the number of insurance claims from 86 to 51
  • Reduce the cost of claims from $531,548 to $117,831
  • Improve worker safety and wellness though multiple programs
