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”.

BI Webinar: Workers comp management amid COVID-19

The coronavirus pandemic has reshaped workplaces and work practices in the space of a few weeks. Employers must quickly adapt to new safety concerns, new workplace injury claims and new claims processes, while managing through a crisis the like of which they have never experienced.

To get to grips with the top workers comp issues facing employers and providers during the COVID-19 crisis, Business Insurance will hold an interactive webinar on April 8 with three workers comp leaders:

Mike Hessling, CEO – North America for Gallagher Bassett.

Rich Lenkov, capital member and head of the workers compensation practice at Bryce Downey & Lenkov LLC.

Brian Van Allsburg – vice president of risk management for Compass Group.

Topics to be covered include:

  • How to handle COVID-19 workers comp claims.
  • Who’s covered, who isn’t and how do you communicate that to employees.
  • Addressing employee concerns in the workplace and in health care settings.
  • What claims management firms are doing to adjust to the crisis.
  • How to monitor the spread of the virus at an organization.
  • Claims subrogation issues as liability lawsuits escalate.
