March 3, 9 a.m. – Injury Management and Preferred Provider Awareness
for PA Insurance Agents
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.
March 3, 2 p.m. – Understanding OSHA 1926.1419-1428 Signal Person
Qualification Requirements
This webinar is designed to provide information and training tools for
the qualification requirements of signal persons, while promoting job
safety and an understanding of how to meet OSHA requirements. It will
include information for use when conducting classroom trainings as well
as a sample practical exam.
March 10, 2 p.m. – Compliance, Safety and Accountability for
Construction
Scheduled to be fully implemented during 2011, Compliance, Safety and
Accountability (CSA) will impact every contractor with a DOT number with
regulated vehicles. During this webinar, learn the seven Behavior
Analysis and Safety Improvement Categories (BASIC), how your drivers and
your company will be measured on each, and how to prepare for CSA.
March 15, 11 a.m. – Managing the Risk of Interruptions to Technology
Services, Ensuring Availability
The modern economy is increasingly relying on technology. The
reliability of internal and external technology infrastructure has
become central to the success of businesses of all sizes and in all
industries. Advances in data transmission and storage have made
distributed service models such as "cloud computing" an attractive
option for increasing efficiencies and reducing expenses. Learn about
unforeseen interruptions to these services - hurricanes, configuration
errors, cyber attacks, and unexpected failures of critical
infrastructure.
March 29, 2 p.m. – Equipment Theft Prevention
Every day, construction equipment is stolen from job sites or
contractors' yards. Learn about ways to control equipment theft and
mitigate the associated risks.
March 31, 2 p.m. – Return to Work: How You Can Positively Impact your
Client's Profitability
Managing the total cost of a workers' compensation program - including
medical and vocational rehabilitation costs, through a return-to-work
guide - makes good business sense. Learn how CNA's cost containment
process can decrease lost time days and reduce your clients' workers'
compensation costs now and in the future.
