Frequently asked questions about workers' comp for manufacturers
What questions should I ask manufacturing accounts about safety practices?
Ask about their most frequent and severe workplace injuries and what they've done to reduce them, what PPE is required and how it's enforced, and what return-to-work program they have in place, including how they accommodate light duty. Manufacturing risk varies too much by materials, process, and machinery for a one-size-fits-all safety program, so these questions are what actually surface the gaps.
