Who We Serve: Construction

Construction Risk Management

You are a builder by profession. You’re building for your clients. You’re building a company. You’re building a legacy. Building that legacy is your purpose.

Risk management in construction is about understanding the value of your business and maximizing that value by minimizing risk.

We specialize in working with construction companies, whether you're a 10-person framing team or a 300-employee general contractor. You have unique risks to your business, from OSHA compliance to subcontractor risk, project delays, Workers’ Compensation, equipment breakdowns and more.

Start assessing the risks within your business today and maximize your valuation.

"The combination of risk management knowledge by the team in our specific business, along with the ENCORE plan are the main reasons we recommend Ellerbrock-Norris."

What's at Risk in Construction

You deal with risk on a daily basis. It’s part of the profession. On the front lines you’re thinking about safety, compliance, culture and project timelines. Meanwhile, in the back office you’re dealing with recruiting and retention, contract language, taking care of your key people and rising insurance costs. 

You could find 10 different advisors, brokers and consultants to help you focus on each risk, paying a premium to each one. Or, you can work with us.

Risk Management Scenario

For the third year in a row, you see your Workers’ Compensation premium increase. You assumed this would happen after you had a few accidents that led to claims last year. However, you never expected your e-mod rate would be this high, and you know you must take action to fix it.

Rather than just quote a new insurance policy, which won’t help much on price, you call your risk advisor to see what safety programs and training is available in your industry. You decide to outsource the training, but implement the internal culture needed to reduce workplace accidents, including morning safety briefing and a “see something, say something” rule for all employees.
