- Risk Management Profile - A Risk management representative will identify existing and/or potential liability and property exposures by collecting information through a questionnaire pertaining to the operations of a Public Entity.
- Recommendations - Recommendations will be made from the information gathered during the profile to assist in reducing identified areas of liability and property exposures.
- Technical Assistance - On-site visits to discuss problem areas, specific concerns, and to assist in the development of written policies and procedures to a Public Entity’s operations.
- Policy and Procedure Review - The Risk Management Department will review established policy and procedure manuals and offer written opinions from the review.
- Law Enforcement and Fire / EMS Committees - The committees consist of department personnel from current Ohio Plan members to assist in addressing, developing and reviewing policies and procedures and liability concerns related to specific operations.
- Resource Material - The Risk Management Department has a large volume of resource materials available for review and assistance, including risk control guidelines, sample manuals, and model policies and procedures for Public Entity operations.
