Nominations for the Workers' Comp Risk Management Award for Excellence will be accepted until April 15, 2024. The awards program is supported by PropertyCasualty360.com, the Workers' Comp Institute, Sedgwick and Safety National.
Workplace safety has reached new levels of importance in recent times as a survey by Ansell Inteliforz revealed that 75% of workers are more likely to stay with a company that prioritizes physical safety. This underscores the importance of implementing effective workers' compensation risk management programs.
Recognizing the critical role of these programs and the dedicated professionals who manage them, PropertyCasualty360.com, the Workers' Compensation Institute (WCI), Sedgwick and Safety National are pleased to start accepting nominations for the 2024 Workers' Comp Risk Management Award for Excellence. The awards program's goal is to spotlight stories about ingenuity, collaboration and humanity in the workers' compensation insurance and risk management sectors.
The nomination period will end April 15.
"Designing an effective workers' compensation risk management program demands ingenuity, adaptability and a profound sense of empathy — qualities abundantly present in past award recipients," said Elana Ashanti Jefferson, editor-in-chief of PropertyCasualty360.com. "Each year, my team and I eagerly anticipate discovering the groundbreaking workers' comp programs across the nation and celebrating the exceptional ones through these prestigious awards."
