Prevention visits

According to the Insurance Bureau of Canada, with insured losses totaling 3.1 billion dollars. Investing the time and effort to reduce such losses is paramount, making prevention a key measure. 

As part of our prevention responsibilities, Risk Advisory and Insurance Services works to identify places on campus that pose a higher risk of loss or damage and we conduct prevention visits. The prevention visit is intended as a learning opportunity and helps raise risk awareness with the goal of avoiding or minimizing future loss. The visits are also an important avenue in educating the members of the Â鶹´«Ã½ÍøÕ¾ community about their responsibilities. During such visits, our team looks closely at the space and meets with stakeholders to discuss prevention best practices. 

Prevention visits can also be conducted following a specific request. Please contact us for more information.
