E-Solutions

Our risk engineers know your business and have worked with healthcare businesses to build practices that help minimize your company's risk. Many times, however, our risk engineers cannot provide the kind of direct service to your company needed due to geography or other circumstances. Therefore, we have captured our risk engineering knowledge and experience to develop customized online packages that target your needs to better understand your business risks. Our solution to help you reduce those risks through self-service includes these e-solutions:

  • Virtual Consulting is an interactive tool that provides focused information on your exposures, including industry specific causes of loss, best practices and resources.
  • TrainFirstTM delivers over 3,000 online courses with powerful learner controls and interrupts, narrated questions with interactions, and real practice activities.
  • First Report Online is a secure, web-based tool that not only helps you manage OSHA and Zurich claims reporting and recordkeeping more effectively, but takes that next critical step of interpreting incident data into reports that can help you analyze losses to find root causes. 
  • Regular boiler and machinery inspection is critical to the proper functioning and safety of your facility. To help with this, Zurich offers our Boiler Inspection Request Online so customers can request an inspection with our experienced Machinery Breakdown specialists.  
  • Impairment notification / restoration permits
Risktopics

Is your building located in a hurricane-prone region? If so, you should have a hurricane emergency action plan in place. Hurricane prone regions exist around the world, including U.S. regions along the Atlantic and Golf coasts, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam and American Samoa. A hurricane emergency action plan should be a living document that should be reviewed and updated each year before hurricane season begins and after any major storm. It should address actions to take before, during and after a hurricane.

With flooding imminent in certain areas, Threat of rising waters: steps to take hours before a flood provides the steps a company can take to help protect its facilities and expedite resumption of operations after the flood. Based on a study of flood claims, Zurich offers a list of steps to take when there is less than 24 hours before expected flooding. While there is no substitute for a comprehensive flood contingency plan, these steps represent a checklist of items that, if completed, can help reduce the impact of a flood on business operations.
