“Basically,” Ms.
                                   Leschak continues,
                                   “the later we make
                                   the request the                     Lets Get
                                   more inflated the
                                   costs will be. The
                                   more time we give
                                   the broker to have                        Social
                                   our request on the
                                   market, the better
                                   pricing we’re going
            to receive. As soon as we know there is a
            need for insurance for an individual client                  Connect with Hill International
            or project, we need to communicate that                      on any of our social media sites
            information immediately.”                                          and see what’s NEW!

            In the near future, Ms. Leschak will be
            sharing a webinar focused on contract
            review via Hill University.  “It’ll be a                JUST CLICK ANY OF THE ICONS BELOW!
            brief, but informative webinar that
            all employees can watch to educate
            themselves on some of the basic points
            of contract review. For example, what
            terms are acceptable and unacceptable,
            and what we want to avoid having
            included in our contracts. It’s really a
            topic that impacts everyone. In addition,
            an Insurance page on Hill’s intranet will
            be developed that will also include some
            standard do’s and don’ts and certificate
            of insurance requests, among other
            things.”
            Concluded Ms. Leschak, “It may not be
            in the forefront of our conscience, but
            every day, what our employees do on
            a project and what choices they make,
            can all directly impact Hill’s insurance
            program. Our safety impacts our program
            and our rates. Making smart choices and
            safe decisions are paramount because
            every time we have a claim against our
            insurance, it impacts our insurance and
            costs. Everyone should know that our
            insurance policies are there should they
            be needed, but like any insurance policy,
            we would prefer to not have to use it.”
