- Partnering with County departments and Schools to assess and proactively identify and reduce risks and make recommendations to eliminate, control, or minimize hazards and risks.
- Conducting research, evaluating and making recommendations regarding risk management, loss control and claims administration strategies by investigating and analyzing causes, patterns, or trends that could result in compensatory events.
- Assisting departments with interpretation of various Federal, State, and Local safety and health regulations.
- Fostering the principles of “proactive” safety & risk management engagement to support the goal of safety as a “value” for all Hanover County Employees.
