Workers Compensation

Margaret helps companies build a more successful organization by learning how to strategically align Injury Prevention with Injury Management. Her programs show employers how to create strategic and tactical policies for implementing safety and managing injuries by linking HR with prudent workers compensation policies.

No question about it…the future of every organization hinges on their ability to manage workers compensation injuries effectively. Injury management decisions that are made today affect your company’s ability to grow and move forward for years to come.

It’s interesting to note that less than 20 percent of today’s hiring managers, supervisors, and business owners have had any training in workers compensation best practices. Most mangers and HR professionals shot from the hip without a thorough understanding of linking exposure with policy and implementing proven techniques that deliver consistent injury management success stories.

“Client Testimonial – “I worked with Margaret Spence for several years when she provided consulting services and training for our multi-state retail stores and our manufacturing plant in the area of Workers’ Compensation, employee safety and return to work implementation. With her assistance, our company achieved lower accident rates and cost savings in our premiums – in fact she reduced our premiums by 45% the first year by strategically changing the way we managed injured employees. The cost saving was achieved and maintained due to Margaret’s creative ideas and assistance in implementing them. She was also extremely helpful in helping us resolve complex claims in California, Illinois and Florida. Margaret is always reliable, delivers what she promises, is articulate, driven and always a true professional. I have recommended her highly to others who have also been happy with her services and training programs.
