Let’s celebrate the 2024 Preferred Risk Management Award winners!
Preferred Safety and Risk Management Member of the Year Award Awarded to a member that has demonstrated continuous improvement through sound risk management practices as measured primarily by the performance of their organization’s insurance program.
Preferred Risk Management Professional of the Year Award Awarded to a risk management professional who has demonstrated outstanding performance in the practice of risk management for their entity as well as the risk management profession.
The Preferred TIPS matching grant program provides reimbursement of up to $5,000 per coverage year for current Preferred members who spend up to $10,000 on training/safety initiatives. The program supports risk management training and safety initiatives.
To be considered for a Preferred TIPS grant, members must complete a short application. Once the application is approved, the member can receive a TIPS grant. Items submitted for reimbursement must have safety/risk management value and relate to the lines of insurance coverage that the member has in place with Preferred.
