Insurance policies can be intimidating. We’re all familiar with the adage ‘The devil is in the detail’.

The purpose of the Webinar is to provide a basic introduction to insurances. We will focus on identifying potential gaps in insurances submitted by our supply chain partners. Just because a company has insurance, doesn’t mean they have the right insurance for the scope of works being undertaken.

This can leave employers/contractors financially exposed. We will share some ‘real life’ examples to make the risk as practical and relatable as possible.

Target Audience:
Professionals working in procurement, logistics, supply chain management, insurance, and risk management roles who want to gain a better understanding of how insurance can protect supply chains and support business continuity.
