Effective Claims Management Training

 
Effective claims management involves a proactive approach towards minimizing costs associated with workplace illness and injuries, all while supporting workers and their families throughout the process. Having an effective claims management program requires a well-developed safety program and injury management. Safety programs support the prevention of work-related illness and injury, while injury management focuses on return to work through the use of modified duties, legal obligations of employers to maintain workers' confidentiality, communication with injured workers and the use of standardized documents.
