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 seeking nominees for 2007 award in employee benefits

Reprints

Business Insurance is inviting nominations for its 2007 Benefit Manager of the Year® award.

The competition seeks to recognize excellence and innovation in employee benefits management. Any full-time employee of a corporation, nonprofit organization or government entity who oversees or administers employee benefit functions is eligible for the award. A nominee need not manage benefits as a sole responsibility but must be a full-time employee of the organization.

An independent panel of judges will score nominees on how well he or she:

c Solved one or more major problems for his or her employer.

c Innovatively applies benefit programs to his or her organization's needs.

c Effectively uses benefit programs to help control costs.

c Exhibits leadership in achieving change within his or her organization.

c Established an effective system for communicating benefit programs to employees.

c Skillfully administers benefit programs through application of technology.

c Develops in his or her career and promotes advancement of the benefits profession.

The value or generosity of specific benefits will not be judged; the award is intended to honor outstanding performance in managing and administering employee benefit programs overall.

The highest-scoring candidate, as determined by the judges, will be named Benefit Manager of the Year® and will be profiled in the Sept. 17, 2007, issue of Business Insurance.

The deadline for nominations is June 1, 2007.

To nominate a candidate for Benefit Manager of the Year®, please download a form at www.BusinessInsurance.com/BMOY or request one from BI Editor Regis Coccia at rcoccia@businessinsurance.com.
