Don’t Risk It! is designed to help ESOs better protect their responders, their apparatus and the community they serve by covering a range of risk management and safety-related topics.
VFIS Senior Risk Control Representative Chris Rodgers hosts bi-weekly discussions with ESO veterans and risk management experts. Each episode ranges from 10 to 20 minutes, and focuses on how responders can help limit some of the industry’s common emergency service exposures. Topics include: patient handling, driver training, fatigue management, problems with Class B foams and more.
Legal action against employers related to Employment Practices Liability (EPLI) claims are on the rise, including allegations of sexual harassment, discrimination and wrongful termination. That’s why when you purchase EPLI insurance coverage through us, you’ll also have access to an EPLI Helpline that you can call for general information about a broad range of human resources and employment law subjects, including topics that tend to be at the center of employment-related lawsuits.
To use the Helpline, please call 866.758.6874, share a brief explanation of your question and an appropriate legal specialist will call you back within 24 hours to assist you.
