LIABILITY CLAIM

If someone is injured while attending at your business or is injured as a result of work you have done, you should immediately take notes which should consider the following.

• Did the person slip and fall? if so, what foot wear did they have on?
• Were they carrying anything at the time they fell?
• Who witnessed the fall?
• Was there anything or substance on the floor that contributed to the fall?
• What were the weather conditions?
• Were emergency services required?
• Did you talk to the person before or after the fall? What was said?
• Do not admit any liability, either verbally or in writing.

Immediately report any injury to your broker so that a proper investigation can be completed. It is very important to complete an investigation early. Utilize the expertise from the SRIM claims department to avoid surprises later.
