Whilst the legislation is likely different in jurisdictions across the world, the requirements to prevent harm to employees is universal. And when things do go wrong and an employee is injured, there is an onus on the employer to help the person recover and get back to their previous lifestyle as soon as possible - including their job role.
Sometimes it proves fairly challenging, and this is where my guest for this episode comes to the fore. Rocio Luna is a seasoned commercial insurance producer with a specialised focus on the construction and staffing industries.
At Insurax, Rocio leverages her vast experience in managing workers' compensation claims, particularly within the stringent regulatory landscapes of California, Arizona, Texas, Washington, Nevada, and New York. She is well-versed in dealing with high Experience Modification Rates (EMRs), helping businesses struggling with frequent workers' compensation claims, general liability, auto, and employment practices issues.
Rocio's approach is deeply rooted in risk management. She provides tailored risk management programs aimed at reducing premiums for businesses with 25 or more employees, primarily targeting contractors and staffing agencies. Her expertise in cumulative trauma claims and state-specific workers' compensation laws has led to significant cost savings for her clients.
Rocio is not just an insurance provider; she positions herself as a strategic partner, bridging the gap between employers, insurance carriers, and the often-misunderstood workers' compensation system.
Whilst the laws vary, the principles Rocio shares in this discussion can be applied in almost any setting.

You've probably heard of the concept of 'the power of the crowd' - in this episode of the Mastering Risk Management podcast, we hear about it being put to good use to battle the scourge of our online world - cyber criminals & state-sponsored hackers.

In this episode, Anthony reflects on the CrowdStrike incident that impacted millions of businesses and users across the globe.
He talks about what happened and what some of the key lessons that we can take away from the incident - including the importance of testing, ensuring backups are in place and working, clear, timely, and transparent communications and of course, the criticality of third-party risk management.
And lastly, what should organisations be thinking about in future to avoid a similar occurrence - Is our cloud strategy resilient, are our user devices fit for purpose / relevant to the operating environment, do we get the appropriate level of assurance from our service and hardware providers?
As we always say, never waste a crisis!

Knowing who has access to your systems and that they have the right level of access is a key tenant of good cybersecurity hygiene. The challenge is that users forget their passwords or can't navigate the multifactor authentication (MFA) process - meaning a call to the Help Desk.
CEO of Nametag Inc, Aaron Painter talks to us about how organisations can save time, improve customer & employee satisfaction and enable the Help Desk to focus on key systems issues. The secret - utilising the technology we all have in our hands these days - our mobile phone!
Aaron talks us through the process (in plain English!) that Nametag has developed to make this time consuming and sometimes very frustrating verification task a thing of the past.
But don't take my word for it - have a look at their website and the demonstration videos - link is here.
This is a game changer for identity management - if your IT team are not listeners of the program, point them to this episode - they will thank you for it!
