Risk Management & Safety

Risk Management

Risk Management​ provides systematic and continuous identification of loss exposure, an analysis of exposure in terms of frequency and severity probabilities, an application of sound risk control and safety procedures, and financing of risk mitigation strategies consistent with the City's financial resources.

Risk Management includes a variety of operations: employee benefits, workers compensation, non-litigated tort claims, employee safety, auto liability, and all property and casualty programs (both insured and self-insured). The Risk Manager oversees these operations and handles the negotiation and acquisition of insurance. Risk Management staff are separated into two basic functions: employee safety and claims administration.​​​
