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.

• 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.
