Business Information Sheet - Minimising Insurance Risks

Preventing disaster

All businesses face a wide range of risks, some more threatening to a company's future than others. In most cases you can either reduce these risks to an acceptable level, or eliminate them completely.

Insurance should be seen as no more than a back-up to the 'risk management' process.

This briefing tells you:

• What risk prevention you are required to carry out by law.
• How to identify the risks your business faces.
• The most common causes of loss or damage, and how to prevent them.
• How taking preventative action will affect your insurance policies.
