CSA and Risk will offer a discussion of the evolution of risk management in the face the CSA program. The following questions will be addressed: How is CSA affecting insurance premiums? How are insurance writers using this information? How can you use risk management strategies to control costs in the post-CSA era and represent your company to underwriters in the best light? It will be presented by John Simms, HNI.
These are just two sessions that are part of an education track focused on heavy-duty vehicles coordinated by Heavy Duty Trucking magazine. Other topics include:
