Enterprise-wide needs
Article Abstract:
Business enterprises that are looking forward to improving their operations must underscore the adoption of enterprise-wide risk assessment strategies. Extra attention must be focused on time and resource management, since these elements are most often the precursors of risks. To address these problems efficiently, companies are encouraged to outsource risk-assessment functions to insurance providers. Doing so would not only alleviate financial uncertainties, but help top management officials concentrate on core business activities, as well.

Sexual harassment rulings draw new lines
Article Abstract:
Managers should be aware of the new rulings on sexual harassment which make the company liable for transgressions of their supervisors and enable employees to file for damages without having to prove a job disadvantage. Insurance analysts expect the new rulings to result in increased lawsuits and more costly claims. Risk managers should implement methods by which employees can voice any complaints, such as toll-free telephone numbers, in addition to concrete definitions of sexual harassment.
