Success Stories: |

Improved Safety Management Reduces Claims
An international casual dining restaurant struggled with poor management participation in proactive risk control which contributed to increasing claims. Managers had little incentive to reduce accident frequency because bottom line P&L determined performance evaluations. Lockton promoted proactive risk control by designing a claims cost allocation process and leading indicator program for local restaurants. By integrating the cost of accidents into a manager’s performance they learned to create a safer, lower cost operation. Results led to a 15% reduction in accident frequency in the first year through a heightened awareness of managers’ safety responsibilities.

Risk Control Service Plan Aids Plant Transition
A national food processing company faced challenges with an upcoming plant closing. Prior to Lockton’s involvement, the company experienced a negative financial impact while shutting down a California plant, when 100% of workers filed workers’ compensation claims. Lockton Loss Control developed and implemented a Risk Control Service Plan for the second California closing. Through upfront research of local jurisdiction, unemployment statistics and job placement resources Lockton created a detailed plan. The plan integrated resources from the community, plant management, corporate finance, human resources claims and safety. Before Lockton’s involvement, the client projected that 50% of the plants 560 employees would file claims. By adopting Lockton’s plan, the company announced the shutdown in mid 2006 and only 3 claims have been filed as of October 2007 totaling $31,800. The original projected loss was $3.7 million to $7 million dollars.

Lockton Goes Above and Beyond for Safety
Lockton’s safety associates go above and beyond. As part of a comprehensive safety audit for a local utility service, Lockton’s Loss Control consultant conducted a job site survey to familiarize himself with challenges in the field. While on site, the consultant observed workers using a horizontal band saw with improper safety measures. The new saw arrived without safety guards. Concerned about workers getting loose clothing or fingers and hands caught in unprotected rotating shafts and nip-points, Lockton called the saw manufacturer directly to explain the concern. Lockton submitted applicable OSHA standards to the manufacturer for review and assessment. After reviewing OSHA standards, the saw manufacturer’s Research and Development team designed a retrofit guard to protect workers. Guards were installed by the manufacturer free of charge before any injuries occurred.
