BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Brazilian plaintiffs have launched a class action lawsuit against German safety inspection company TUV Sud in Munich for allegedly covering up the problems with Brazil’s Brumadinho dam that collapsed and killed hundreds of people in 2019, Deutsche Welle reported. TUV Sud’s Brazilian subsidiary inspected the dam’s retention basins and concluded that they were safe, shortly before the collapse. The plaintiffs are seeking hundreds of millions of euros in compensation.
