Insurance and Slip/Fall Risk Mitigation
By Kathleen Vandale | Other articles by Kathleen Vandale | Feature
Condo Corporations have experienced rising insurance premiums over the past couple of years. As winter is upon us, most Winnipeggers are likely complaining about the weather and slippery conditions on roads, sidewalks and parking lots. Read on if you want to reduce potential slip and fall claims which could impact insurance premiums.
In 2020, CCI Manitoba had two presentations on insurance trends and challenges, the recent webinar on Oct 22nd and an in-person Lunch-n-Learn on Jan 30th (which seems so long ago now after months of the pandemic). Recordings of these presentations are available on the CCI Manitoba website at https://cci-manitoba.ca/members-only/podcasts. At the January session, loss prevention tips and materials were made available by Hub International, the insurance broker, two of which are reproduced here.
As we near the end of the sustained cold winter weather, repeated freeze-thaw cycles create more treacherous conditions, which increase the risk of slip/fall injuries on your property. So make good use of the Slips, Trips and Falls Checklist and the Slips, Trips and Falls information sheet as part of your CCs loss prevention strategy.
