A committee of California JPIA staff evaluated various factors that reflect member risk management efforts, including overall claims performance, improvement in claims performance over time, responsiveness to their individualized Loss Control Action Plan (LossCAP) recommendations, participation in the Authority’s loss control programs, and attendance at training opportunities.
“At its core, risk management is about protecting people and safeguarding public resources,” said California JPIA Chief Executive Officer Alex Smith. “The awards recognize agencies that have made risk management a priority and have demonstrated diligence in serving their communities. It’s a privilege to recognize them.”
Congratulations to the 2026 Risk Management Award Winners!
