Solutions Beyond the Policy

At TrueNorth, we believe that risk management involves more than an insurance policy. While an insurance policy serves as the basis for protecting your people and your assets, we offer solutions beyond that to help our clients further mitigate risk, maximize opportunities, and create operational efficiencies.

Through a series of blog posts, we will explore the diverse solutions we offer, hear from our experts, and showcase the tangible impacts on our clients. Each blog will focus on a different category, starting with safety, well-being, and loss control.

Safety, Well-being & Loss Control

Transportation accidents continue to be the most frequent cause of on-the-job fatalities, highlighting the need for organizations to develop cultures that emphasize the importance of safety and take proactive measures to educate and protect their workforce. TrueNorth’s Risk Solutions team delivers creative, tailored solutions to our clients to ensure the safety of their workforce, while optimizing productivity. We recognize that one standard approach doesn’t fit the unique needs and goals of every business. Instead, we become an extension of your team and take a hands-on approach to finding what solutions and support best fit your organization.

Risk Councils

Risk councils are a cornerstone of our approach, providing tailored solutions and ongoing support. These monthly, collaborative discussions involve TrueNorth colleagues and client team members, including an executive leader, a safety or risk director, and an operations representative. During these meetings, we review risk-based KPIs and gather insights from client representatives. Our team then analyzes the data trends and feedback to identify improvement areas and recommend appropriate resources.

SYiNERGY

Our SYiNERGY engagement is a system-based approach designed to rectify misalignment between operations and risk. It integrates our proprietary business intelligence tool, iNergy, with hands-on support from our team. iNergy collects, measures, and evaluates operational and risk data through key performance indicators. The team then uses this data to inform their risk council meetings, safety communication strategies and on-site visits.

Impact

Our safety, well-being, and loss control solutions aim to ensure that everyone makes it home safe. Bert Mayo, Vice President of Risk Solutions at TrueNorth, shares that, “Being a safety advocate means more than just implementing policies; it means genuinely caring for the well-being of every driver on the road.” Our clients experience tangible outcomes such as reduced crashes, fewer injuries, fewer violations, and improved safety scores. But perhaps equally as important, they gain the peace of mind that they are doing all they can to keep their workforce safe. Learn more about our safety, well-being, and loss control solutions here.
