CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Risk Control unit of CNA insurance companies recently announced two February Webinars for its School of Risk Control Excellence®.

Feb. 24 , 10 a.m. – Injury Management, Preferred Provider and Return-to-Work Awareness

To maximize the delivery of healthcare services and return-to-work outcomes, there must be collaboration between CNA, the employer, the employee and preferred medical providers. This Webinar explores the components of the claim process: the relationship with a preferred medical provider, immediate medical care procedures, accident investigation and the stay-at-work/return-to-work process.

Feb. 24, 2 p.m. – Understanding OSHA 1926.1400 – Crane Standard Overview

OSHA’s new 29 CFR 1926.1400 rule covering cranes and derricks in construction is a comprehensive reform of the crane standard. As a whole, the standard can be overwhelming and confusing as it incorporates many dates, certification requirements and types of training allowed. Participants will receive an outline of timelines for various requirements of the reformed standard and will review the primary changes to the rule. Additionally, participants will be provided with information to help them prepare for compliance with the new rules.
