New: Impersonation Fraud Guidance. This resource was developed in response to a rise in impersonation fraud reported in the news. Its purpose is to raise awareness among employees about the tactics used in impersonation fraud, promote vigilance in verifying the authenticity of communications, and establish protocols for reporting suspicious activities. Additionally, the resource outlines services available to members to assist in efforts to prevent impersonation fraud.

Updated: Footwear and Hard Hat Safety Guidelines. The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is a critical component of any comprehensive injury and illness prevention plan (IIPP). When integrated into an IIPP, PPE helps minimize the likelihood of injuries and illnesses that may arise from workplace hazards. This resource was reviewed for potential updates. Key updates include references and hyperlinks to the applicable standards and regulations.

Resources can be accessed and downloaded via the online library located in the resources section of the Authority’s website. Resources available in Word format are for members to customize to agency-specific policies and procedures.

If you have any questions, please contact your regional risk manager.
