Solving Workers Compensation Takes Innovation

Facing ever-increasing economic uncertainty, forward-looking transportation companies proactively adopt new tools and processes to control costs, manage compliance and reduce workplace risk. The key to proactively identifying and reducing workplace risk lies in using technology and data to reinforce and elevate safety culture with awareness, engagement, action and accountability.

All companies struggle to understand the multitude of risks that exist in the workplace. This can be especially true in transportation, where gaps in awareness amongst transportation company departments, such as dispatch and drivers, can be endemic. Dispatch employees need the shipment moved to its destination regardless of circumstances. However, being aware of a driver’s hours of service commitment, or a driver’s ability to complete a proper pre-trip inspection, and a driver’s defensive driving habits are often overlooked. This creates additional risk of injury and costs. Secondly, the needs and goals of the different departments, such as operations versus safety, lead to misunderstanding and unnecessary exposure to risk.  How can we address this?

AssuredPartners has teamed up with workplace risk leader, altumAI, to introduce the app-based futureWork solution. futureWork, uses easy-to-deploy apps to improve worker health and safety. The apps provide missing elements of engagement, and thereby create an awareness that requires proper action. Finally, it delivers the opportunity to find accountability with training and learning sessions driven by the results.

With an initial focus on the transportation segment, the AssuredPartners futureWork solution is focused on the unique risks and challenges faced by transportation companies. We are ready to work with you to transform workplace health and safety by using data and technology to control costs, manage compliance and reduce workplace risk.
