RISK MANAGEMENT BEST PRACTICES
All locations are encouraged to implement Best Practices concerning processes that will reduce or
eliminate the risk of any type of loss. The elimination or reduction of losses is most important in keeping
our future insurance premiums as low as possible.
Best Practices include establishing sound Safety practices, the continuous maintenance of property and
machinery, correcting known safety defects, adhering to Archdiocesan policies and procedures and, if a
loss does occur, timely reporting the loss to our claim administrator, Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc.
Historically, there have been a number of claims that have resulted from or made worse by the failure to
adhere to Best Practices, or, in other words, because of Poor Practices.
Risk Management Manual Revised 01-11

01/11
Some examples of Poor Practices affecting claims would be:

Late reporting of Workers’ Compensation claims. (State law requires reporting all injuries
to our claims administrator, Gallagher Bassett, within five days of knowledge of the
injury).

Money is stolen from an “off the books” account or resulting from the use of a rubber
stamp or other methods of facsimile signatures which are practices that do not comply with
the Financial Management Control Manual for Parishes.

Injuries sustained because of a building or premises defect that should have been repaired.

Contents of building destroyed by rain leaking through a poorly maintained roof..
The following lists the insurance deductibles by line of coverage.
Please note that the Poor Practice deductible will be applied when the Poor Practice is deemed material
to a loss.

WORKERS' COMPENSATION REPORT
The Archdiocese of St. Louis entered into agreements with various locations that provide medical
services at negotiated prices. These providers specialize in the treatment of Workers’ Compensation
injuries and will assure that Archdiocesan employees continue to receive quality care. You should use
the pre-established Archdiocesan network list.
The Division of Workers’ Compensation allows any employer in the State of Missouri to direct the
medical treatment of an employee injured on the job. Therefore it is imperative that you utilize ONLY
the Archdiocesan provider list to ensure proper medical care for a work related injury. If this procedure
is not followed, payment of bills may be denied by the Archdiocese. In that event, either the
parish/agency or the injured employee would be responsible for payment. If specialized care is required
or a provider is not within your area, contact Gallagher Bassett Services Workers’ Compensation
Specialist (See Page 6) for referrals.
When using any of the providers from the approved Archdiocesan list, you must provide the injured
employee with the treatment authorization form (Gold form on Page 25; NOTE – This form may not
be reproduced, please contact Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services, Inc. for additional
copies). If an employee requires more than one treatment, physical therapy or referral to a specialist,
these locations will be contacting Gallagher Bassett Services directly to make arrangements. Should
you be contacted by one of the medical facilities asking for authorization for additional treatment or
referral to a specialist, please refer the person to Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. for a Workers’
Compensation Specialist (See Page 6).
Select a medical provider from the list below and enter in “Physician/ Facility” space on Workers’
Compensation Treatment Authorization form (Gold page 25). Fill out this information and the
parish/agency information in advance. Make these completed forms readily available in case an
emergency. Should an emergency arise, time may be critical. NOTE - Facilities have been arranged in
Zipcode order to provide easy access to locations closest to you. These facilities are designated for
treatment of employee (workers' compensation) injuries. We have listed Medical Centers and Hospitals
at the end of the Treatment Facilities. Medical Centers and Hospitals should be only used for "after
hours" injuries or extreme emergencies.
REFERRAL FOR MEDICAL CARE
1.
Complete the Archdiocese of St. Louis Workers' Compensation Treatment Authorization form.
2.
Designate one of the pre-selected locations, insert its name on the Treatment Authorization form
(if you have not already done so), and give it to the employee. Direct the employee to the
OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND MEDICINE DEPARTMENT, The Emergency Room
should be used only for critical medical emergencies.
3.
Send a copy of the Treatment Authorization form to Gallagher Bassett with the Report of Injury.
4.
The Workers' Compensation Treatment Authorization form may not be duplicated.
Contact Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services, Inc. (See Page 6) for additional forms.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING
WORKERS’ COMPENSATION

Emergency Room Treatment - The E.R. should be used for all life threatening medical
emergencies; otherwise it should be avoided because the doctors there do not have special
training in Workers’ Compensation. When someone needs treatment after hours or on
weekends, the family physician should be contacted.

If there is no primary care center in your immediate area, (30 miles or less), contact the
Gallagher Bassett Services (See Page 6), for assistance in preselecting a medical facility.

When an employee is injured, the Risk Coordinator should be contacted immediately and
requested to notify Gallagher Bassett.

Prompt reporting will ensure more effective medical direction, thus enabling the employee
to return to work sooner, reducing costs for all of us.

It is most helpful if the Risk Coordinator is in regular contact with the injured worker,
making reports to Gallagher Bassett on the employee’s progress.

General Liability
Risk Management Manual Revised 01-11.doc
26
01/11
GENERAL LIABILITY INCIDENT REPORT
General Liability: Is an accident/occurrence to a third party (non employee) that results in injury or
damage to that person or their property as a result of an actual or alleged negligent act by an employee
or volunteer of the parish/agency while performing duties, or as a result of a defective/dangerous
condition of our property.
Claim: Person (third party) that had received medical attention or sustained damage to their
person/property and is requesting or expecting payment of their expenses from the parish/agency.
Incident: When it is unknown if person (third party) will be presenting a claim. However, due to the
severity of the injury or the nature of the potential negligent act/occurrence, it is reasonable to anticipate
that a claim could arise in the future.
General Instructions: The Incident Form (page 31) should be used to report any injury on Parish, school
or agency premises or at a Parish, school or agency event off site where the injured person is not an
employee. A separate form may be used for each injured person. The Incident Form should be used to
report any injury, whether it is an incident or actual claim. However, if it is an “Incident Only”,
indicate on the top of the form “For Information Only”.
It is important to remember that you have several options in submitting your Incident Report. Please see page
8 before you begin processing . Only you can determine the method of reporting that is easiest and best for
you.
(The following is based upon completing a manual form or using the computer completion method.
However, the information needed for reporting under any of the options is the same. This form must be used
immediately in reporting all incidents.)
General Instructions:
Copies of the INCIDENT REPORT FORM should be distributed to all employees and volunteers who
have supervisory responsibility for activities of the Parish, School or Agency.
Preparer:
The INCIDENT REPORT should be completed by the Parish/Agency employee or volunteer with
supervisory responsibility for the activity at which the INCIDENT occurred at the time of the Incident
or as soon as possible.
The PREPARER should complete the top portion of the form promptly after the INCIDENT has
occurred and forward it to the RISK COORDINATOR for the Parish, School or Agency.
Risk Coordinator:
The RISK COORDINATOR should review the INCIDENT REPORT , adding his/her comments
where indicated, sign the form and forward a copy to Gallagher Bassett. If the matter is urgent,
Gallagher Bassett should be contacted by phone. Otherwise, the report should be mailed to Gallagher
Bassett within one (1) week of the occurrence.
A claim is a request for compensation for injury or damages from an “INCIDENT”. If the preparer or
any individual directly involved with the incident gives any indication that a claim will result, this
information is important and should be noted in the Comments Section.
Risk Management Manual Revised 01-11.doc
27
01/11
Should the RISK COORDINATOR obtain additional information regarding the INCIDENT after the
REPORT has been sent to Gallagher Bassett, photocopy the report and add the additional information at
the bottom, sending it to Gallagher Bassett Services.
A RISK COORDINATOR is the representative of the Office of Risk Management on the scene in
every parish, school or agency. This is an important responsibility. It is preferred that the risk
coordinator not be the pastor/administrator. However, the pastor/administrator will always receive
copies of all material sent to the risk coordinator from our office.
Besides becoming familiar with the procedures outlined in both the Claims’ and Safety Manuals (so that
proper procedure may be followed by those involved when something happens) the RISK
COORDINATOR needs to inform others on the handling of various situations. For example,
employees need to be informed about Workers’ Compensation and, along with volunteers and those who
use buildings and facilities, they need to know how to address situations that could develop into liability
claims. Finally, they need to make information available and give proper instruction to all of the
operators of vehicles that are covered in our program.
We are all very grateful for the work that has been done thus far. If all of us face the future by joining
together to follow these procedures, we may save a great deal of money in the billings we have to pay
and, more important, help those around us avoid injuries, which, on occasion, could be serious.
Volunteers:
Volunteers are an important part of your agencies and parishes, but they are not covered under Workers’
Compensation. When a volunteer is injured on your premises, an “Incident” Report should be
completed. If the injury is severe, notify a Gallagher Bassett Property, Liability & Auto Specialist (See
Page 6) as soon as possible.
There is no medical payments coverage available to your guests or volunteers. We have no liability
unless there is negligence on our part. When a guest or volunteer is injured, always show concern for
the injured party.
If you do not believe there is negligence, the parish or agency may elect to pay whatever expenses are
incurred that are not covered by the injured person’s medical insurance, with parish and/or agency
funds. If the parish or agency makes payments, please contact the Office of Risk Management to
discuss a proper release. If the medical expenses are substantial or require a lengthy, ongoing medical
care, notify the Office of Risk Management, which may elect to provide assistance with payment or
medical management of the injury. An Incident Report should still be completed. If the parish and/or
agency elects to offer assistance, please indicate this in the Comments Section. If the injured party is
demanding payment, please also note.
It is important to remember that you have several options in submitting your workers' compensation Report of
Injury. Please see page 8 before you begin processing . Only you can determine the method of reporting that
is easiest and best for you.
(The following is based upon completing a manual form or using the computer completion method.
However, the information needed for reporting under any of the options is the same. This form must be used
immediately in reporting all workers’ compensation injuries.

ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE FOR RISK
COORDINATOR
General Instructions:
1.
Insert Parish/Agency name, address and telephone number on the Incident Report and
make multiple copies for distribution to persons who will have responsibility for
supervision of Parish/Agency activities. (The “PREPARERS”)
2.
Make copies of the RECOMMENDED RISK MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (page 31)
and of the Instructions (page 28-29) for distribution to the PREPARERS.
3.
Make sure the PREPARERS have your name, address, and telephone number.
4.
For times when you will be absent, make sure the Rectory or Agency office has the name,
address, and telephone number of an alternate RISK COORDINATOR.
Medical:
If any medical attention is received, indicate when and where.
Evidence:
1.
Photographs
If a camera is available, it is recommended that photographs of the INCIDENT site be
taken. The scene could be altered or changed before the INCIDENT is referred to
Gallagher Bassett for its examination.
2.
Objects

it is liquid, attempt to identify the substance and determine its source. Also, indicate how
long present.
Prevention:
Barricade the area or take other immediate steps to prevent future incidents. Make certain
corrective measures are visible (lighting, bright paint, rope, tape).
Written Statement:
If the person intends to make a claim, the preparer should obtain a complete written statement
from the individual. This would include his or her name, address, telephone number and a
description of what happened, including the extent of the injury. The identity of any witnesses
should be obtained at that time.
Serious Injuries:
Fatalities or serious injuries that require hospitalization (other than emergency treatment) should
be reported by phone to Gallagher Bassett; so an immediate investigation may be conducted.

LIABILITY COVERAGE FOR
PERSONS PERFORMING
CHILD ABUSE BACKGROUND CHECKS
The policies of the Archdiocese require that a child abuse screening background check be done for each
new employee and volunteer working with or near children and that this screening be done again on the
even years thereafter. For information concerning the Archdiocesan policies and requirements, please
contact the Safe Environment Program.
Questions have been asked regarding liability insurance coverage for employees or volunteers who are
involved in the process of obtaining child abuse screenings or overseeing others in this process.
The liability insurance of the Archdiocese of St. Louis covers, with certain limitations and exclusions,
employees and volunteers for their acts or omissions which are within the course and scope of their
duties. One exclusion is for claims arising out of sexual misconduct. Thus, if an employee or volunteer
is sued for his or her acts or omissions in connection with child abuse screening and the suit is based on
a claim of sexual misconduct, there is no insurance coverage for the employee or volunteer.
In order to provide protection for employees and volunteers in the case of a claim of injury based on
sexual misconduct where an employee or volunteer is accused of negligence in the child abuse screening
process, the Archdiocese will provide indemnification and defense for employees and volunteers for
claims arising out of sexual misconduct against them based on their alleged negligent acts or omissions
in connection with child abuse screenings. This agreement to provide indemnification and defense does
not apply to claims which are covered by the insurance of the Archdiocese. The exclusion for sexual
misconduct claims became effective on July 1, 1986 and claims based on occurrences prior to that date
are covered in accordance with the provisions of the policies in effect in the respective prior years.
If any employee or volunteer receives a claim or a threat of a claim based on his or her role in the child
abuse screening process, he or she should follow the procedure for any other claim or threat of a claim,
which is to notify his or her supervisor or the pastor, in cases of a parish, who will direct the matter to
the Office of Risk Management and the Archdiocesan attorney. The claim will then be reviewed for
coverage and the employee or volunteer will be given direction.

LIABILITY CONTROL AND SPECIAL EVENT
(TENANT USERS LIABILITY INSURANCE PROGRAM)
Effective July 1, 2008, the existing Special Events Program was eliminated.
After reviewing the cost and time to administer this program when compared to the actual losses
incurred, we have decided to eliminate purchasing the special events insurance policy. However, the
following practices MUST continue:
Extended Use of Facilities
(Athletic Fields, Halls, Meeting Rooms, Offices, etc.)
Whenever an OUTSIDE organization wishes to use Archdiocesan property for events or programs
that are held on a regular basis (especially when rent is paid and/or a fee is charged to the participants),
a Certificate of Insurance for Liability coverage must be obtained from the outside organization or
individual. If paid employees are involved, Workers' Compensation coverage should also be
evidenced on the Certificate of Insurance. In addition, the parties should sign a Hold Harmless
Agreement (See Page 45).
Certificate of Insurance requirements:




General Liability - $1,000,000 limit for liability
Workers' Compensation – Statutory Limit
Don't forget to attach the Hold Harmless Agreement
Maintain a copy of the Certificate of Insurance and Hold Harmless Agreement on file for
a period of five (5) years from the event date.
If courtesy is extended to a group by allowing it to meet on the premises where there is no financial
consideration involved, liability coverage is not required. However, a hold harmless agreement must
be obtained. All blank forms and material concerning special events should be destroyed.
Short Term Event
Similar to Extended Use arrangements, a certificate of insurance and hold harmless agreement must be
obtained from all organizations using the parish/agency premises for a single event. Individuals using
the parish/agency premises most likely will not be able to provide a certificate of insurance; therefore,
you MUST have them sign a hold harmless agreement prior to the facility usage.
Note: Failure to comply with Best Practices will result in the an increased deductible per the Risk
Management Policy.
